How To Disinfect Well Water for 14 Cabins on Mountain


Hello,

We are looking to chlorinate our system, but are not sure exactly what kind. It is for a shallow well supplying 14 cabins on a mountain and is prone to bacteria. We have a well pump (16 GPM) down below which pumps up to a large reservoir up the hill a short way. From the reservoir's submersible pump, it is pumped to a pressure tank and switch and from there to each of the cabins up the mountain. Hope this helps.

Dick,

All you need is this 45MPH Complete Stenner 2 Chlorination System, available for only $495 including shipping. Select the voltage of the chlorinator pump to match your well pump voltage (probably 220v).

What Is The Best Test Kit For Water Safety?


Hello,

I will be moving into a house with a well water system. I would like to ensure that it is safe to drink in terms of heavy metals and pesticides. I see the $49.95 well water test on your website, which is the most comprehensive, but in your FAQs it says that determining the safety of the water is not included. How do I go about purchasing the most comprehensive test, in addition to determining safety? Thank you for providing me with the exact instructions on what to ask for and what to purchase from your company.

Hello Katherine,

We would recommend the WaterCheck comprehensive lab test for your well water. This test is a really good value because it is done by an EPA certified lab, and tests for many metals, pesticides and herbicides. To view the complete list of tests, click here.
