Shock chlorination and control of iron bacteria

Description

Iron bacteria are a common nuisance in water wells, but are not considered a health hazard. They use dissolved iron in the water as an energy source and leave slimy deposits of red iron hydrate as a by-product. This slime will coat the inside of the well casing, water piping and equipment, creating problems such as reduced well yield, restricted water flow and red staining of plumbing fixtures and laundry. However, all iron- staining problems are not necessarily caused by iron bacteria. The iron naturally present in the water can also cause significant problems.
