Yeah there's no galvanized bladder tanks, rancher.
speedbump said:You said you were going to buy an inline filter and fill it with chlorine tablets. You have no control of how much chlorine will be in the water. I would have to think it would be extremely high. If your going to chlroinate, use a chlorinator of some sort.

Liz, if I'm understanding you correctly - when we recycle bleach bottles we don't make new bleach bottles out of the old ones. They make plastic tables, chairs, garbage cans etc. out of that plastic. So your water treatment dealer is leading you astray.
It sounds like Blan has just about ignored all the advice here and done things his way. He has a galvanized bladder tank with a ruptured bladder to spite what we told him and he is still chlorinating (destroying) his well. He says he has Iron Bacteria which is strongly doubt and needs to have his water checked which I doubt he has done. I for one haven't seen any water analysis numbers yet.
This is the the "going about things the wrong way" in a nutshell.

I just saw your long saga dealing with your well. Since your problem started all at once after the well was in for several years the problem is probably the galvanizing on your well casing is gone.
Galvanizing corrodes more easily than steel and it goes first saving the steel. Once it is gone the steel starts to corrode and then the bacteria have some thing to eat.
There are some products on the market that claim to eliminate iron bactiera for good. You need to treat with what they call a cataysit and chlorine with pH buffers. You also need to agitate the mixture for an extended period of time to make sure it is dispersed outside of the well.
I would suggest you have a plastic well drilled and most if not all of your problems will go away.
I was going to apologize for missing the test results until I went back and looked for them. Unless I'm blind they are nowhere to be found except in your last blast at me.
The only numbers I saw quoted by you was the over priced figures you were bitching about. If you have a problem with someone selling you something that's your prerogative. If you want to keep listening to the advice you want to hear as opposed to good advice that's also your business.
You did state that you had a galvanized bladder tank to which there is no such thing.
As for putting Chlorine down your well repeatedly, have at it. When the casing rots out, we can say we told you so.
Good luck,

This is awkward, but...
