RECLAIMING EFFICIENCY | WATER WELL REHABILITATION

High Velocity Injection Treatment* is a unique technique designed by Brotcke Well & Pump, Inc. (BWP) which uses patented equipment. A custom blend of chemicals is surged through the well and forced out into the formation. Through this process, mineral deposits are removed from the formation as well as the well screen resulting in capacities much higher than those achieved by traditional methods of well cleaning. All chemicals used by BWP are National Sanitary Foundation (NSF) approved.

LOCATION OF NEW GROUNDWATER | HYDROLOGICAL INVESTIGATION

Engineering water wells begins with a thorough understanding of the aquifer. Test holes are necessary to determine the aquifers integrity and locate an acceptable location for the new well. A location which has the following properties is highly desirable:

Saturated Thickness – High
Relative Density – Low
Coarseness of the Sand – High
Amount of Fines in the STRATUM – Low

From a single well to an entire field – BWP’s capabilities and track record speak for themselves. We provide our clients the data and analysis that allows them to make confident decisions.

A Hydrologic Engineering Study is approached as a multi-phase project at Brotcke Well & Pump, Inc. While there can be many variations from project to project, our approach is as follows:

PHASE 1 Test Boring Program
PHASE 2 Laboratory Sieve Analysis
PHASE 3 Test Well Construction and Pump Testing
PHASE 4 Engineering Analysis and Report

DESIGN AND CONSTRUCTION | CONFIDENCE TO MOVE YOU FORWARD

Well design is based on intended use, desired capacity and the aquifer’s hydrologic properties.

One or more test borings are required to define the aquifer at the desired well location. Gradation tests of representative samples allow selection of well screen slot size and gravel pack. The right well screen coupled with the proper gravel pack results in a highly efficient, sand free well – our project goal.

Well screens and casing ranging from 8" to 36" are commonly used with bore hole diameters ranging from 24" to 60".

BWP specializes in reverse circulation drilling – the preferred method in unconsolidated formations because it minimizes drilling fluid additives, assuring a high-efficiency well.

Brotcke Well & Pump’s (BWP) video inspection camera procedure employs a side-view camera that examines walls, casings, sand infiltration, encrustation, deterioration, perforation blockage and other physical damage to vertical shaft wells.

PUMPS

BWP is a full service sales and repair facility. For new installations, our engineers work with your design team to select the pump that fits your specifications. Specialized components and standard pump parts can be fabricated in our custom machine shop. Most often, an existing pump can be rebuilt to a “like new” condition in our on-site machine shop.

INDUSTRIAL PUMPS

We know pump maintenance and repair are critical to your operation. Downtime reduces productivity, quality of output and can create inconvenience with the general populace. Because of this, we service most makes and models, including:
• water pumps
• turbine pumps
• irrigation pumps
• blowers
• gear boxes
• compressors
• cooling tower pumps

INSPECTIONS

Inspections are extremely important in the evaluation of your equipment. Brotcke Well and Pump’s experienced personnel will provide your facility with a detailed inspection of each of your pumps. Attention to detail and procedures are critical to finding damage and wear.

We provide you inspection documentation that ensures you compliance. Digital photos are taken upon arrival of the pump at our shop and continue through out the inspection process. Inspection documentation and photos are emailed to the client for prompt analysis.

Should repairs be necessary, Brotcke Well & Pump provides 100% guaranteed services in an efficient and meticulous fashion.

MACHINING EXCELLENCE

Brotcke Well & Pump, Inc. (BWP) maintains a complete machine shop on our premises insuring a timely and professional repair of both vertical turbine and horizontal pumps. Routine and emergency repair is provided on an as-needed basis.

BWP GUARANTEE

All repaired pumps have tolerances greater than factory specification. If that is not enough, let us know what you require.

GEOTECHNICAL & ENVIRONMENTAL DRILLING

BWP has been providing drilling services for almost 30 years. We have a complete array of drilling equipment to best serve our clients. Our equipment includes auger drilling rigs complemented with various sizes of drilling tools, steam cleaners, support trailers, service trucks, mobile cranes, decontamination equipment, protective clothing and safety equipment.
Our employees are trained to advance bore holes through overburden using both hollow steam augers and mud rotary drilling techniques. Their extensive experience with rock coring and other sampling methods (such as split spoons, shelby tubes, continuous samplers and piston samplers) assures our clients results.
