Discharge Pipe at One of the Wells. Air Lift Plant, Ravenna, O.
Increased the Delivery Many Times.
C. W. Wiles, Superintendent of the Delaware, 0., Water Com-
pany, gives some interesting facts concerning his experience with the
air lift:
“We have had in use one of your air compressors for delivering
water from deep wells since 1895; from that date to 1902 we were
taking water from one well 255 feet deep ; this well had a smal] natura]
flow, but the application of compressed air developed a flow equal to
the body of the well, increasing the delivery many times.
“In 1902, we put in another 8-inch well and connected the air, and
have the same result, maintaining the increased flow from ten to four-
teen hours continuously each day; the forced flow from these wells
has not diminished, in fact, we believe they are fully as strong as when
we first began the use of air.
