Treatment of Well Water

There are many different treatment options for the treatment of well waters. No single treatment type will protect against all problems. Many well owners use a home water treatment unit to:

• Remove specific #contaminants

• Take extra precautions because a household member has a compromised immune system

• Improve the taste of #drinkingwater

Household #watertreatment systems are composed of two categories: point-of-use and point-of-entry. Point-of-entry systems are typically installed after the water meter and treat most of the water entering a residence. Point-of-use systems are systems that treat water in batches and deliver water to a tap, such as a kitchen or bathroom sink or an auxiliary faucet mounted next to a tap.

The most common types of household water treatment systems consist of:

• #FiltrationSystems

• #WaterSofteners

• #DistillationSystems

• #Disinfection

In order to determine the best treatment option, contact a water well systems contractor.

Preserving Wells for Future Use

Wells that are not currently being used, but might be used in the future, must be continuously maintained like a working well.

Well Retirement

Wells that are no longer in use must be retired. Old wells can cause liability issues for the landowner if the well is putting neighboring wells at risk through groundwater contamination. One of the biggest problems with old wells is that they can be forgotten and left to further deteriorate, causing a potential hazard. Wells that are no longer in use must be retired in order to:

• Protect ground water from surface contamination

• Protect vertical movement of water between aquifers

• Eliminate a potential safety hazard for humans and wildlife

Water wells need to be filled-in and sealed properly. Depending on the state, homeowners are required to notify their local Department of Environmental Protection or Water Quality Division to document the retirement of the well. Homeowners are urged to contact these agencies in order to learn the required procedures in their area. For more information on retiring/decommissioning a well, visit Wellowner.org’s Old/Unused WellsExternal.

Wells can be difficult to retire, and usually only a well water systems contractor has the correct equipment. A well water systems contractor will be able to provide more information on plugging unused wells. and should also have knowledge of well decommissioning (retiring) code requirements.
