Hydrogen peroxide treats well water without the residual taste of chlorine, oxidizing iron, sulfur, and bacteria. It is a clean alternative when the water carries minerals and biology.
The oxidation
Hydrogen peroxide oxidizes iron and manganese, turning them into particles that a filter can catch, and it also kills bacteria.
The system
A metering pump injects the peroxide into the line, and the water flows through a contact tank and then a filter. freezing winters put stress on exposed lines, and many older homes still have aging galvanized pipes In Worcester, it is a favorite for sulfur and iron wells.
The benefit
Unlike chlorine, peroxide breaks down into water and oxygen, so there is no chemical taste in the finished water.
The maintenance
The solution is refilled and the pump is calibrated, and the filter media is serviced on schedule.
The safety
Peroxide is stored and handled carefully, and a pro sizes the dose to the water's needs.
