A chlorine injection system treats well water that carries bacteria, iron, or hydrogen sulfide, dosing the water with chlorine as it enters the home. It is the standard treatment for biological problems in a well.
The problem
Bacteria, iron bacteria, and sulfur odors in well water are treated with chlorine, which kills the biology and oxidizes the minerals. freezing winters put stress on exposed lines, and many older homes still have aging galvanized pipes In Terre Haute, wells with these issues are common.
The system
A metering pump injects a small, steady dose of chlorine into the water line, and the water then flows through a contact tank where the chlorine works.
The removal
After the contact time, a carbon filter removes the chlorine so the tap water is clean and safe to drink.
The maintenance
The chlorine reservoir is refilled, and the pump is checked and calibrated on a schedule.
The safety
The chlorine dose is sized carefully, and a pro sets it so the water is treated without tasting of chlorine.
