Sanitation Procedure

continue to run pump if water doesn’t flow.
B. The high level of chlorine required to sanitize 

a water system is corrosive to most metals and 

 

chlorine solution must not be allowed to remain in water 

system more than 36 hours before being completely flushed 

from system.
8.  After  system  has  been  completely  flushed,  perform  a 

bacteriological analysis on the water following all applicable 

procedures.
NOTE:  Always follow the sanitizing procedure required by 

applicable state or local laws.
EPA Registered:  Well sanitizer pellets are EPA Registered 
for sanitizing potable water.  EPA Registration No. 50510-1
LARGE DIAMETER WELLS:  Dug or bored wells 

should be disinfected in the same way as a drilled one.  Lower 

the water level as much as possible, remove the sand, silt 

and debris, and then treat with the chlorine solution.  Mix 

thoroughly by circulating the water back into the well  and 

use the hose to rinse the interior lining of the well. Do not 

try to disinfect an unprotected, unlined well because new 

seepage or surface contamination will flow into the water 

nearly as fast as you can disinfect it.  Disinfect the pipeline 

distribution system as indicated for drilled wells.
SPRINGS AND CISTERNS:  Mix about ½ cup of 

household bleach in 5 gallons of water and use this to 

scrub the walls of the spring box or holding tank.  With 

a  constant  flow  of  fresh  water  from  the  spring,  there  is  

probably no way of detaining the chlorine solution in the 

reservoir for more than a few minutes.  However, the 

chlorinated  water  should  flow  through  the  pipeline  to 

disinfect the distribution system.  Cisterns can be disinfected 

in the same way but a source of clean water will be needed to 

flush the dirty waste out of the system.
For additional information about how to protect wells and 

springs and keep them from becoming contaminated, call or 

visit your local Cooperative Extension office, or your nearest 

certified water treatment specialist.
TABLE 1 **  Quantity of solution mixed - 5.25% available 

chlorine (laundry bleach) for disinfecting   

 

 

wells, or 52,500 P.P.M..
WQA recommends 50mg/l or ppm chlorine concentration.

Formula -  

C2 X V2 / C1 = V1

C1= Household Bleach (52,500 P.P.M.) 

V1= Chlorine Amount Needed

C2= 50 mg/L 

V2= 80 gallons holding time

I.E.  50-ml/g X 80 gal= 4000/52,500= .08 gallons of chlorine (5.25%)

        .08 gal chlorine (5.35%) X 128 (oz/gal) = 10.24 oz (5.25%)

Dug Wells - 3 to 4 feet diameter - 4 cups per foot of water

Drilled Wells - 3 to 8 inch diameter - 1 cup per foot of water

HOW TO DISINFECT A WATER SYSTEM:
Every  new  well,  or  existing  water  supply  system  that 

has been disrupted for service or repair, should be 

disinfected before it is returned to use. Water in the 

well and storage tank should be treated with a strong  

chlorine solution to destroy disease organisms.  All pipelines 

and  fixtures  in  the  distribution  system  should  be  rinsed 

and flushed with chlorinated water.  Upon installation of 

a U.V. disinfection unit or yearly bulb replacement service, 

disinfection  with  chlorine  to  initially  flush  the  system  is 

recommended to assure line sanitation prior to U.V. start up.
The source of chlorine can be ordinary household liquid 

laundry bleach (about 5.25% available chlorine).  The 

quantity required depends on the volume of water to be 

treated.  The United States Environment Protection Agency 

(EPA) indicated that about 100 parts of chlorine, by weight, 

mixed in a million parts of water will destroy essentially all 

water-borne disease organisms.  Table 1 shows the quantity 

of liquid bleach required to disinfect wells of various 

diameters and depths.  
DISINFECTION PROCEDURE:
1. Remove the cap or seal from the casing and measure 

the depth of the water in the well, then refer to Table 2 to 

determine how many chlorine pellets should be used.  In 

some instances removing the seal to measure the water can 

be a difficult task, and it is easier to estimate well and water 

depth from well  log or other records.
2. Remove well cap and determine if there is an unobstructed 

path from the top of the well to the water level.  If it is not 

possible to remove the well cap, remove vent or sanitation 

access plug.
3. Drop one pellet into the well and listen to hear if it hits the 

water.  If the pellet hits the water, drop one-half the number 

of pellets determined to be needed into the well.  These will 

sink to the bottom and sanitize the lower part of the well.
4. Mix the remaining pellets in a few gallons of water in a 

CLEAN plastic container and pour the solution into the well.
5. In order to mix the chlorine thoroughly throughout the 

entire water system, it is necessary to recirculate the water in 

the well.  This can be accomplished by connection a hose to 

an out side faucet that is located after the pressure tank.  Use 

hose to run water back down the well (this also rinses upper 

portion of well).  After about 15 minutes of recirculation the 

water, a strong chlorine odor should be apparent.  Turn off 

hose.
6. Bypass water softener and filters and open each water 

outlet in the water system until chlorine is present in water.  

This procedure assures that all the water in the system is 

chlorinated.
7. Allow the chlorinated water to stand in the system for 

at least one (1) hour, and preferable overnight. After this, 

open an outside faucet system until water runs chlorine free.  

Repeat flush operation on each faucet in system.
NOTE:
A
. Chlorine may break loose iron deposits, slime and organic 

material.  This material will make the water discolored.  The 

material broken loose may plug pump screens.  Do not
