Say Goodbye to Contaminants and Unwanted Odors – Transform Your Water Today

The Dangers of Untreated Well Water

If you rely on a private well for your home or business's water supply in Tampa Bay, ensuring the safety and quality of that water is paramount. Untreated well water can harbor a variety of contaminants that pose serious risks to human health and damage plumbing systems and appliances.
 

  • Common well water contaminants in the Tampa area include:

  • Bacteria (E. coli, coliform)

  • Hydrogen sulfide (rotten egg smell)

  • Iron and manganese (staining, buildup)

  • Hard water minerals

  • Volatile organic compounds (VOCs)

    Ingesting contaminated water can lead to gastrointestinal illnesses, skin rashes, and long-term health issues. That's why effective well water treatment is essential for Tampa Bay homeowners and businesses on private well systems.

Why Hydrogen Peroxide for Well Water Treatment?

At Aqua-Wise Water Treatment Solutions, we believe in harnessing the power of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) to purify well water in an eco-friendly, chemical-free way. As an oxidizing agent, hydrogen peroxide is incredibly effective at removing a wide range of contaminants from water while breaking down into oxygen and water - leaving zero toxic byproducts.
 

Hydrogen peroxide well water treatment offers numerous benefits over traditional chlorine treatment:

More Effective Disinfection H2O2 oxidizes and inactivates a broader spectrum of microorganisms like bacteria, viruses, and cysts compared to chlorine. It's especially potent against hard-to-kill pathogens.

No Harsh Chemical Odors or Tastes Chlorine can impart an unpleasant chemical taste and odor to treated water. H2O2 treatment leaves no residual smell or taste.
 

Better for Plumbing and Appliances The oxidizing power of H2O2 helps remove mineral buildup and biofilms that clog pipes, extending the life of plumbing and water-using appliances.

Environmentally Friendly As it breaks down, H2O2 becomes simple oxygen and water - nothing toxic is released into the environment.

How Hydrogen Peroxide Well Water Treatment Works

While hydrogen peroxide is a simple molecule (H2O2), harnessing its oxidizing power for water treatment requires specialized equipment and processes. Here's a quick overview of how our H2O2 injection systems work:
 

  1. Water Testing & Analysis - We start by thoroughly testing your well water to identify all contaminants and their levels. This allows us to precisely calibrate the treatment system.
     

  2. Pretreatment Filtration - Depending on sediment and particulate levels, your water may pass through depth filters or multimedia tanks to remove solids before oxidation.
     

  3. Hydrogen Peroxide Injection - A metered pump injects a hydrogen peroxide solution into the water stream to achieve the optimal oxidant level for disinfection and contaminant removal.
     

  4. Oxidation & Reaction - As H2O2 mixes with the water, it begins rapidly oxidizing pathogens, iron, manganese, hydrogen sulfide, and other inorganic/organic contaminants through chemical reactions.
     

  5. Filtration for Removal - Oxidized contaminants are captured by depth cartridge filters, catalytic carbon tanks, and/or specialized media beds down the line.
     

  6. Final Polishing - UV disinfection and/or reverse osmosis membrane filters provide a final purification step before the treated water enters your home or facility.
     

Throughout the process, Aqua-Wise's advanced control systems continuously monitor water quality and automatically adjust hydrogen peroxide levels for optimal treatment.
