Best Answer

You chlorinate it with domestic chlorine. Run a garden hose from a faucet to the well head. Mix a five gallon bucketful of hot water with a small handful of 'shock' for use in spas and pools. Start the hose running. When the pump starts, pour this down the well. Take readings in the well and house with a pool test kit. Do not drink the water for 2 days, or wash coloured clothing. After 2 days the chlorine will have dissipated.
