One thing I do know that the bacteria really grows during the summer months as the water warms up in the lakes and pond. If you believe that you are doing the right thing I would say stick with it, but I defiantly would have it tested by a professional during the warmer months. A good water test will cost about $100 and after having one done I would stick to that person/company for any future as records are great and they will know what to look for. that is just my 2¢ and not intended to be any type of criticism.  in whatever you do, but please be careful where kids are involved.  |
A UV system is standard practice for the well company we work with Wragg Brothers. They are much more common in residential use than you might think. At the same time you offer very good advice on keeping up with the well. Even with all the systems in place, one needs to still make sure that they are doing the job that is intended of them.
