Well Rehabilitation: Restoring and Revitalizing Your Water Well
Over time, water wells may experience decreased performance, reduced water quality, or other issues that affect their functionality. Well rehabilitation, also known as well restoration or well rejuvenation, is a process that addresses these concerns and restores the well to its optimal condition. It involves the use of specialized equipment and techniques to improve water flow, remove mineral build-up, and address bacterial contamination. One crucial aspect of well rehabilitation is the proper pulling out of the well pump, allowing for a thorough and effective restoration process.
Well rehabilitation often requires the use of specialized equipment to clean and revitalize the well. This equipment may include high-pressure water jetting devices, airlift systems, or mechanical brushes designed to remove accumulated debris, sediment, and mineral deposits that can restrict water flow. By utilizing these tools, Total Wells aim to restore the well's original capacity and improve its overall performance.
In some cases, chemical treatments may be necessary during the well rehabilitation process. These treatments are specifically targeted at addressing bacteria and mineral build-up that can affect water quality and the well's infrastructure. It is important to note that chemical treatments are only employed when needed, as excessive use of chemicals can have adverse effects on the well’s construction.
To properly rehabilitate a well, the well pump must be pulled out. This allows technicians to access and clean the well casing, and screen. Removing the pump also enables the thorough inspection and potential repair of the pump itself. By conducting a comprehensive evaluation of the well pump, professionals can identify any issues that may affect its performance and address them accordingly. The process of pulling out the well pump requires expertise and specialized equipment to ensure the safety of the technicians and the integrity of the well system.
