What changes in Lake Asbury
Acreage in Lake Asbury asks a well to feed a house, a barn with a bathroom, a wash rack and an irrigated paddock through hundreds of feet of buried line. A new bore is sized to that total demand, not to the house alone, and the pressure tank and switch are chosen so the far end of the property sees pressure rather than a trickle.
Lots are large, so the 75-foot setback from the septic system is easy to meet, and the wellhead is placed with the pasture drainage in mind so surface water runs away from it. The county health department permits it, and Call Flamingo plans the well and the septic field on one site plan when both are new.
How the job runs
How a well is drilled here
Every new well is designed before it is drilled: purpose, demand, depth to the water that suits it, casing through the clay where the bore goes to the Floridan, and the setback from any septic system on the lot or next door. The permit is filed with the county office, or the City of Jacksonville in Duval, before the rig is booked. The bore is drilled, cased, grouted, developed until it runs clear and tested for yield. The pump, pitless adapter and pressure tank are sized to that yield and to the demand. The well is disinfected, the completion report is filed and a sample goes to a certified laboratory before anyone drinks from it.
