Well Chlorination in Hempstead, Texas

Well Chlorination in Hempstead, TX — 77 Water Well Inc.

Well chlorination (also called well shocking or disinfection) is a critical service for Hempstead, TX property owners whose water tests positive for bacteria, has been flooded, or has had recent well work performed. 77 Water Well Inc. provides professional well chlorination services that eliminate harmful bacteria and restore safe, clean water to your home or property.

When Is Well Chlorination Needed?

You may need well chlorination if: your water tests positive for coliform bacteria or E. coli, your well was recently repaired or worked on, your area experienced flooding or heavy rainfall, you notice a sulfur or rotten egg smell, or you're moving into a property with a well that hasn't been used recently.

The Chlorination Process

Our technicians introduce a measured chlorine solution into the well casing, circulate it through the system, and allow it to contact all surfaces for the required dwell time. We then flush the system thoroughly until chlorine levels return to safe levels and retest to confirm disinfection was successful.

Post-Chlorination Water Testing

After chlorination, we recommend follow-up water testing to confirm bacteria have been eliminated. 77 Water Well Inc. can coordinate lab testing for Hempstead properties to give you documented proof that your water is safe.

Recurring Bacterial Issues

If your well repeatedly tests positive for bacteria, chlorination alone may not be a permanent solution. We'll investigate the source — whether it's a cracked casing, improper wellhead seal, or surface water intrusion — and recommend a lasting fix.
