Why Wichita is ideal for shallow wells

Greater Wichita sits over the Equus Beds aquifer, where the water table is shallow — so many irrigation wells are only ~60–70 feet deep. That keeps installation fast and affordable compared to deep-drilling regions.

Irrigation well FAQs

Common questions

What's the difference between a sand-point and a drilled well?

A sand-point is a driven point well — cheapest and fastest, best in shallow sandy ground for lawns. A drilled well is bored and cased for higher, steadier flow — better for big lawns or acreage. We recommend the right one after seeing your property.

How deep will my irrigation well be?

Over the Equus Beds many irrigation wells are only ~60–70 feet, though it varies by location. We confirm depth on the free property check.

Can I hook it to my existing sprinkler system?

Yes — that's exactly what our lawn-irrigation package does: we tie the new well into your sprinklers, add a backflow valve, and test the zones.

Is irrigation well water safe to drink?

Irrigation wells are non-potable — they feed your sprinklers, not your house. If you want a drinking-water well, see our well drilling page.

Do I need a permit?

Yes. Sedgwick County requires permits and licensed contractors for well work — we handle it, with the regulated work done by our licensed KDHE contractor.
