 Hi !

I've started to dig a shallow well and drove 25 feet of a 2 inches pvc pipe. 10 feet is stuck into sand and the remaining 15 feet that I connect through inside coupling came off ungled with the water pressure. Iam able to re-attach it but it comes off when the wahter pressure builds up.

Any ideas on how I can secure it so I can continue the work?

I've tried a few things: Inserted a 3/4 pipe down the hole and added water pressure to see if I could release the 2inches pipe; no luck. The 3/4 pipe went down to 40 feet.

Can I continue to drive the 1 1/4 at this point?

I'd hate to start everything all over again.

Thanks for not laughing.!!!

Wilson
