Water well treating method

Claim 1

A method of treating a water well which includes an outer casing extending downwardly into an aquifer and in fluid communication with the aquifer, a pipe within the casing and spaced concentrically therefrom with a pump associated with the lower end of the pipe and casing for pumping water from the aquifer to above-ground surface into a discharge pipe, and a recycle pipe interconnecting the discharge pipe and the annulus between the casing and pipe therein consisting of the seeps of controlling flow of water for discharge from the discharge pipe and recirculating water from the discharge pipe through the recycle pipe into the annulus adjacent the upper end of the casing for free-fall of water in the annulus for impacting residual water in the annulus and heating the recirculated water, determining the recovery rate of water level in the annulus from the lowest pumping level when water is being pumped and discharged from the discharge pipe to a static water level when water is not being pumped and dividing the distance between the lowest pumping level and the static water level into multiple equal increments and recycling water with free-fall at each of the increment levels above the lowest pumping level thereby providing impact wave energy to each of the increment water levels of the aquifer between the lowest pumping level and the static water level.
