PRIVATE WATER SYSTEMS - CONSTRUCT YOUR WELL CAREFULLY

Construct Your Well Carefully

RECOMMENDED HEIGHT ABOVE GROUND: typically casing extends 1 to 2 feet above the surrounding land, thus preventing surface water from running down the casing or on top of the cap and into the well. Private well code generally requires that at least 8 to 12 inches of casing pipe extends above the final land grade.
