How to Handle a Gaseous Well

In some areas well water contains gases which must be al- lowed to escape before the water is used. This can be done as shown in Figure 11.

A good way of delivering gas-free water is to suspend a pipe,

closed at the bottom and open at the top, surrounding the suction pipe. Since the gases rise in the well casing, the

water sucked down through the pipe and into the suction pipe is free of gas. This type of well must be vented to the outside of any enclosure.
