Application of the reagent:
1. Determining the water column
Before starting work, the height of the water column must be measured - this will help to accurately calculate the volume of water in the well and the required amount of reagent.
-
Remove the pump from the well.
-
Use a rope with a plumb line to measure the depth to the water surface.
-
You can also use the pump itself by lowering it to the bottom. Secure the submergence level with tape on the hose, then slowly raise the pump while listening for the sound. When the pump comes out of the water, mark the second level. The difference between the marks will be the height of the water column.
🔹 You can also measure the water level (static and dynamic) using the Well Level Meter app - it's convenient, fast and doesn't require removing the pump or using additional tools. The app is available for download on Google Play.
2. Calculation of water volume in the well
Use the formula to calculate the volume of water:
Water volume (l) = Height of water column (m) × Liters in 1 m of pipe
Table of water volume by casing diameter:
🔹 You can calculate the water volume yourself or use this table.
3. Calculating the amount of reagent
Use the following proportion to effectively clean the well:
1 can of reagent is designed for 60 liters of water volume in the well.
Example:
If the water volume is 60 liters - use 1 can of reagent.
If the volume is 120 liters, you will need 2 cans, etc.
🔹 It is important to determine the exact volume of water in the well (see section 2) in order to apply the correct amount of reagent.
4. Cleaning with circulation
-
Lower the pump to 1 meter from the bottom of the well.
-
Turn on the pump and ensure a closed circulation circle, returning the water back to the well.
-
Gradually pour the reagent into the running well.
-
After the entire dose of reagent has been applied, continue circulation for 15 minutes.
🔹 WARNING: Carbon dioxide (CO₂) may be released when the reagent interacts with carbonate rocks.
In order to avoid gas accumulation and creation of dangerous concentration in the confined space:
do not cover the well pit,
Ensure that the working area is constantly ventilated during the entire treatment.
5. Refilling water
4 hours after the reagent is applied, add water to the well in a volume equal to 1/3 of the original volume.
Example:
60 л : 3 = 20 liters
6. Pumping and water quality control
-
After 24 hours, start pumping the well.
-
The first portions of water will be cloudy and with a pronounced technical odor - this is a natural result of chemical purification.
-
Pumping should be done directly through the pump, without filters, meters and other devices to avoid clogging them.
-
Pump until the water is clear, odorless and free of sediment.
-
Take a pH measurement using the litmus paper included in the kit.
-
If acidity is high, continue pumping for at least 1 more hour.
-
Before using the water, it should be chemically analyzed according to the requirements of DCanPiN 2.2.4-171-10.

According to the European quality standard, the acid-alkaline balance of drinking water in the EU is 6.5-9.5
Digital well condition monitoring
With our applications - “Well Level Meter” and “Flow Meter” - you can easily monitor key parameters of your well, such as:
-
Static Level
-
Dynamic level
-
Well flow rate
This allows you not only to monitor the current state of your well, but also to objectively assess the effectiveness of reagent cleaning after it has been performed.
🔹 Both apps are available for download on Google Play.
Additional recommendations
-
In wells with a large volume of water it is recommended to dilute 1 can of reagent for every 60 liters of water and pump the resulting solution into the lower part of the filter zone. The volume of the solution should be at least 2 times the volume of the filter part of the well.
-
If the volume of the well is up to 30 liters - dilute the reagent with water and pour the solution into the well completely.
Prevention
Periodic use of the reagent for preventive purposes allows to prolong the service life of the well many times.
🔁 Recommended interval between preventive cleaning is 12-24 months.
With our applications, you can easily monitor key parameters of your well - such as static level, dynamic level and flow rate.
This allows you to not only monitor the current state of the well, but also objectively evaluate the effectiveness of reagent treatment after it has been performed.
