Hello everyone,
I had to dig up around my well to replace a yard hydrant. Previous owners let several trees grow up over the last 30 years so it has taken a LOT off work to get through all the roots. Since I have it clear I am going to install a CSV. I am thinking of replacing the pipe (looks like galvanized) that come out of the casing when I refit the valve and new hydrant. Can I just back this pipe out without a problem or would I have to do something on the inside of the well?
A few things about the picture: the pipe that is unhooked looks to go to an abandoned yard hydrant. The pvc pipe that goes to the house turns to 3/4 copper somewhere before it comes up out of the slab... not sure where the transition is or why they did it.
