I live about 14k outside Sangkha in small, primitive village. The locals here speak Suwai and they barely speak Thai so I cannot sort things out easily with the people who run the water supply system.
I have a system that uses water from the village which goes through a filter, holding tank, pump and then into the house taps.
With unwelcome frequency the village water supply is turned off for periods up to 2 or three days. When it comes back on it is brown and smelly. The reservoir here is overflowing so I assume that it's not about supply. I reckon it is about their pump but nobody has any answers as to why this is happening.
I think the only solution is to install a well. My question is; will I need another pump for the well which connects to my system before the filter etc.? Is there a cut off switch on these well pumps that senses when the reserve tank is full so it stops pumping?
I would appreciate comments from anyone who has any experience with this kind of problem.
