| Whenever a well shows signs of turbidity, loss of capacity, taste changes, odor problems or is coliform positive it should be checked for overall microbial presence. Proper cleaning followed by disinfection returns a well close to its original condition and performance.
At AmeriWest, we have numerous products designed to maintain and rehabilitate your wells.
- KlearWell 186 BioAcid Dispersant: Concentrated Liquid Biofilm and mineral Dispersant. This product is used for large wells with high volumes of water where a concentrated product makes more sense. It may be used as an additive to acids to enhance cleaning. It utilizes unequaled polymeric-acid chemistry capable of breaking down biofilm and dispersing minerals. It enhances the solubility of debris, prevents re-precipitation and maintains its activity when the pH increases above 3 during the well cleaning process. It protects all types of metal in the well and will not attack plastic, neoprene or other synthetic materials. It is commonly used at 1% to 3% by weight of volume. It is usually mixed with water and acid at the surface equal to 35% to 45% of the total static level volume of water in the well. ASNI/NSF Standard 60 Certified
- KlearWell 286, BioAcid Dispersant: Liquid Biofilm and mineral Dispersant. This is a slightly diluted formulation of KlearWell 186 for smaller applications of biofilm and mineral cleaning. ANSI/NSF Standard 60 Certified.
- KlearWell 300, MudPurge: Liquid Mud and Clay dispersant polymer. This is an excellent dispersant chemical designed to remove mud and clay from the well during new well development and to rehabilitate old clay and fines plugged wells. ANSI/NSF Standard 60 Certified.
- KlearWell 440 ChlorHelp: Liquid Chlorine Enhancer. This liquid chlorine effectiveness enhancer is used to maintain the pH in a well at 6.5 during chlorination. It greatly improves the biocidal properties of liquid chlorine. It contains chemicals that allow deep penetration into biofilms to improve disinfection. ANSI/NSF Standard 60 Certified
- KlearWell 486 ChlorStop: Chlorine Neutralizer. This concentrated dry crystal chlorine neutralizer is used to neutralize chlorine solutions prior to disposal. ANSI/NSF Standard 60 Certified.
- KlearWell NIS Surfactant: Liquid Non Ionic Surfactant. This liquid non ionic surfactant is active over a wide range of pH and does not interfere with other chemistries used during well rehabilitation. It improves wetting and penetration of hard surfaces needing cleaning. ANSI/NSF Standard 60 Certified
- KlearWell 101 Acid Base: Liquid Food Grade Acid. Used as the companion ingredient for KlearWell 186 and 286. Also can be used as a basic cleaner for wells, filter beds and water system equipment. ANSI/NSF Standard 60 Certified.
