WELL-KLEAN© · WELL REHABILITATION 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 pumping off at 270 gpm to 2,090 gpm on the same well.”
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.

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% estimated in service with the new pump installed alongside the rehabilitation.

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. 1005
Leadville, CO — 14-in. stainless wire-wrap screen
A biologically fouled wire-wrap screen at 150 ft. Biocide, Well-Klean© Concentrate and Pre-blend, neutralized with bicarbonate — before-and-after images in the report.
CASE STUDY NO. 1006
Globe, AZ — downhole video before and after
A 16-page photo report: pre-cleaning screen images, then the same intervals after 3% active peroxide, Well-Klean© Concentrate and 18% Pre-blend.
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 the test pump (about 62% estimated in service with the new pump), and an estimated $5,466 a year in energy savings at 4,000 hours and $0.14/kWh — rehabilitation plus pump replacement.
THOMAS WELL NO. 5
Albuquerque, NM — HCT case write-up, 2016
From pumping off at about 270 gpm (1.19 gpm/ft) after a plug-back to 2,090 gpm at 27.87 gpm/ft — 91% of its 1990 rating. Rehabilitation and pumping tests by HCT; owner withheld.
