Sanitizing a well will kill bacteria that may
have been introduced during the pump
installation. This can be done with chlorine
bleach or chlorine pellets poured down the
well just before or just after a pump is
installed. Once you introduce these chemi-
cals make sure that the pump is working to
prevent that it sits for a longer time in the
aggressive environment.
Consult a local supplier or
environmental health authority
for a recommended procedure.
Do not use an excessive con-
centration.
WARNING PS-Pumps may be damaged by
soaking in a high concentration of chlorine
solution. Avoid prolonged contact.
