WELL-KLEAN© · CASE STUDIES

Documented, not described.

Real-world results from Well-Klean© treatments on municipal, industrial and agricultural water wells — each one with the well construction, the chemistry prescribed, what the contractor did downhole and what the pumping test showed afterward.

FEATURED CASE STUDY · THOMAS WELL NO. 5

“From 400 gpm to 775 gpm on the same well.”

BEFORE WELL-KLEAN©

 

An alternative method had already been tried

 

A prior cleaning method left the well at 400 gpm with the pumping level at 445 ft — a specific capacity of just 1.43 gpm per foot of drawdown.

AFTER WELL-KLEAN©

 

Record-setting recovery

 

The same well came back at 775 gpm with the pumping level at 404 ft — specific capacity more than doubled to 3.26 gpm per foot.

THE DIFFERENCE

 

Measured on the same well

 

Pre- and post-treatment pumping tests on one well, with the same pump, are the only honest way to score a rehabilitation.

 

+94%

operational pumping capacity

FIELD RESULTS

What the pumping tests showed.

Every Well-Klean© case study is scored the same way: what the well did before, what was prescribed, and what it did after. A few of the numbers from the reports below.

1,000 gpm

 

Restored to new-well output

 

Cochise County, AZ: a 16-inch irrigation well that had fallen to 300 gpm in four years.

 

180 gpm

 

Back to its 2004 rating

 

Prescott, AZ: down to 58 gpm before treatment; static level rose 20 ft afterward.

 

100%

 

Of slots open after treatment

 

Oak Creek, AZ: 75–80% plugged before; post-video even found slots nobody knew were there.

 

$5,466

 

Estimated annual energy savings

 

Parkville Water District, CO: specific capacity +13%, wire-to-water efficiency 19% → 62%.

CASE STUDY NO. 1001

 

Prescott, AZ — 8-in. steel well, 396 ft

 

Production had slid from 180 gpm new to 58 gpm. Video showed 30–50% blockage by scale, iron bacteria and biofilm. Restored to 180 gpm in four days; static level rose from 190 to 210 ft.

CASE STUDY NO. 1002

 

Oak Creek, AZ — golf course irrigation well, 828 ft

 

Perforations 75–80% plugged; the pond could no longer be irrigated. After treatment every slot was 100% open — including a hidden interval 100 ft above the brushed zone.

CASE STUDY NO. 1003

 

East Valley, AZ — 6-in. PVC circulation well, 252 ft

 

Screen slots 80% plugged with scale and iron bacteria had shut down the circulation system. Treated PVC-safe in four days; the system went back into service.

CASE STUDY NO. 1004

 

Cochise County, AZ — 16-in. irrigation well, 1,158 ft

 

From 1,000 gpm new to 300 gpm in four years with drawdown reaching the pump intake. Tremie-placed Pre-blend, 26-hour soak; restored to 1,000 gpm with drawdown at minimum.

CASE STUDY NO. 1006

 

Globe, AZ — downhole video before and after

PARKVILLE WATER DISTRICT

 

Parkville, CO — municipal well rehab, Central Pump Company

 

Specific capacity 4.49 → 5.15 gpm/ft (+13%), wire-to-water efficiency 19% → 51% on test, and an estimated $5,466 a year in energy savings.

THOMAS WELL NO. 5

 

The record-setting rehabilitation

 

400 gpm at 445 ft to 775 gpm at 404 ft — specific capacity 1.43 to 3.26 gpm/ft, a 94% gain in operational capacity.
