Aqua Gard®

STI has been providing well rehabilitation services for the past 20 years. During that period we have treated more than 6,000 wells worldwide, and have come to believe that it is far better to maintain yield and efficiencies than to try to recover them. This experience has led to the development of Aqua Gard® preventive Well Maintenance Systems, where proactive rather than reactive cleaning has proved to be more efficient and much more economical for the client. In addition, because well and geological formation surfaces are kept clean, raw water quality is improved.

The Aqua Gard® system includes the placement of energy injection equipment permanently installed with the pump in place, allowing for the regularly scheduled, routine, preventive service to the well without removing the pump. The system can be installed in wells that are equipped with both submersible and vertical line shaft turbine pumps. Local raw water quality, specific well operation and historical rate of well plugging will determine the intervals between services. Aqua Gard® is ideal for new well installation or for installation following a major well rehabilitation effort. Wells that experience severe and rapid fouling recognize a financial and efficiency benefit from the onset.
