What do you need to connect copper to galvanized pipe?

Yes. Use a threaded fitting, male or female as needed on the copper and screw the galvanized into it.You must use a dielectric fitting to connect copper to galvanized pipe. If you don't, a galvanic reaction will occur and the piping will corrode and leak. You can use a Dielectric Union or a Threaded Brass fitting to join the two types of piping together.UNIONS can leak the best answer would have been a dielectric nipple

How do you replace the submerged well pump for my home?

You first must know if you have a Pitless Adaptor or just a Well Seal. You will need a couple of pipe wrenches and some way of holding the pipe while you take apart each joint. The joints unless you have Poly Pipe should be 21' lengths for galvanized pipe or 20 foot for PVC pipe. If you do have Poly Pipe, it will be all one piece with joints at either end only. Be extremely careful not to drop it. If you drop it, you may never see it again.


Why water go longer from pipe when pipe end is pressed?

Well if you reduce the area of the pipe at the end, or anywhere else on the pipe for that matter, you are restricting the flow and it will be reduced. How much reduction depends partly on the water pressure available


What are water wells made out of?

A well can be dug and the walls lined with stone or brick. A well can be drilled and a PVC pipe inserted with a smaller pipe inside to pump the water out. If there is no rock in the location, a pipe with an end on it can be driven directly into the ground. The end has a point on it and the sides have a fine screen covering it to keep dirt out of the water.
