Bad Well Water is Bad for Livestock

Bad Well Water is Bad For Livestock!


Well water that is contaminated is a danger for you, your livestock and pets on your homestead. Well water can contain a variety of contaminants. Some of these contaminants are naturally occurring minerals and chemicals, while others are caused by industrial or agricultural operations nearby.


Contaminants in well water include bacteria, chemicals and heavy metals like arsenic.


Bacteria in particular can be a serious health issue for those who rely on their well water for drinking purposes because it can cause gastrointestinal illness (such as diarrhea) or even infections such as cholera or typhoid fever if the person drinks enough of it over time.


Some wells may have high levels of naturally occurring minerals like iron that turn your tap water brown or red when you turn on your faucet; others might have high levels of naturally occurring radium which could pose potential health risks if consumed regularly over an extended period of time


Contaminated Well Water


Many people rely on well water as their primary source of drinking water. While this may seem like an ideal situation, there are actually some disadvantages to using well water.


Wells are susceptible to contamination from a number of sources including bacteria, viruses and parasites; chemicals such as pesticides and toxic substances; or even animals that fall into the well (such as snakes).


These contaminants can cause illness in humans AND LIVESTOCK if they drink contaminated water long enough or in large enough quantities.


DIY Whole House Well Water Filter


If you have a well, then a whole house filter is ideal for you. The whole house water filter can be installed in your home and used to filter drinking water, cooking water and bathing water. It has a large capacity so it will last longer than other filters before needing to be replaced or serviced.


The location of where the filter is installed depends on what type of setup you have at your homestead: you can put it next to the well or inside the shed with it; if not then it can be put in another outbuilding or in your house.


Whichever way this fits into your home/property layout will depend on what makes sense for each individual situation--no matter how small or large your property may be there's a perfect spot to site your homemade well water filter!


It's Easy to Use My Course To Build a DIY Home Water Filter


It's easy to build a homemade water filter. You can find all the materials at a plumbing, big box store, or hardware store, and it takes about one day to assemble the filter.


I highly recommend getting all your PVC parts and pieces from a local plumbing supply house or store rather than buying online or at a big box retailer. I'd hate to see your plumbing project stumble because you got the wrong PVC. PVC pipes come in a wide variety of types, classes, and applications and navigating that can be a bit overwhelming!

You might not have enough money to buy a commercial water filter. Even if you do, I'll bet you'd rather spend that money on a vacation or that lamb wether sire you've been eyeing, or you may simply want to know how these things work so that you can build them yourself.


Well water is generally more contaminated than municipal water, so if your well has been tested and found unsafe for drinking or if there are signs of contamination like rusty toilets, clogged shower heads, and ruined water heaters, then this is probably something worth doing!


A DIY Home Water Filter is a Great Solution for Those Who Lack Access to Clean, Safe Tap Water

Well water is often the best source of drinking water, but it can also be contaminated with bacteria, viruses and parasites.


Contamination may come from nearby farms or septic systems, or from well drilling activities. Natural sources of contamination include runoff from rainwater that washes into your well after a storm or snow melt.


Well water should be tested when installed and routinely from there on. If you live in an area where there are many old wells around your home then you need to have more frequent testing done as there could be more contaminants present due to having been around longer than newer ones would have been when installed.

Homesteading is a way of life for those who want to live off the land and be self-sufficient. It's also a great way to save money, as you can grow your own food and make your own products instead of buying them from stores.

You'll also want your homemade well water filter to be easy-to-use so everyone on your homestead will be able to use and maintain it without any problems.


The last thing anyone wants is something complicated with lots of parts that might break down over time due solely because nobody knew how exactly what parts, how to maintain the system, not knowing plumbing skills, or how much pressure was needed.


Well water can be a great source of water for your homestead, but it does pose some risks if you don't test and treat it if necessary.
