Regional groundwater summary • British Columbia Historical Log Extraction
Bottom Line Up Front
In Logan Lake, the median completed well is 156 ft deep.
A published hardness range for this place and aquifer is less than 10 to 180, and groundwater can exceed 1,000 mg/L as CaCO₃. That is a regional estimate, not a test of your well. Source: Estimate based on B.C. Ministry of Environment water-quality checks.
Most production draws from Unconsolidated (about 10% of local wells).
These municipal aggregates support planning only — they do not replace an accredited laboratory potability test for your own well.

Approximate boundary of Logan Lake
Shaded area is an approximate municipal outline for orientation only. Well records are aggregated across the entire Logan Lake.
Most completed wells fall near the median depth of 156 ft.
Median depth of 156 ft falls inside the reported range. Deeper completions here usually mean higher mineral content but steadier year-round pressure.

Suggested system
Test kit
estimate, confirm with a lab testA test of your own well comes before any equipment. Test for coliform bacteria.
Water testingSediment prefilter
estimate, confirm with a lab testA sediment prefilter is worth considering where wells draw from Unconsolidated. This follows the aquifer type.
Sediment guideWater softener
estimate, confirm with a lab testA softener is likely needed. The nearest monitoring well has a median hardness of 225 mg/L as CaCO₃.

Bacteria and UV guideBecause water wells in Logan Lake average 156 ft into unconsolidated, contractors equipped with heavy rotary rigs and proper casing seals are recommended. Contact local drillers directly or request competitive bids.
