Description
BoreSaver is the approved range of well and borehole cleaners for potable water supplies suffering from build-up of iron bacteria, iron oxide, manganese oxide, calcium carbonate and other minerals.
Use BoreSaver Ultra C to completely remove iron and manganese oxide deposits and control iron bacteria contamination.
Safe, easy to use and fast acting, in just 24 hours Ultra C will:
- Remove all deposits and contamination
- Improve water quality
- Increase water flow
- Extend the life of pumps and equipment
Ultra C is approved by the Secretary of State in the UK and by the NSF in America. It is a specially formulated proprietary blend of monohydrates and organic acids based on leading independent research. One of its key components, oxalic acid, is a naturally occurring organic acid which is biodegradable.
Supplied in granular form Ultra C can be added directly to the water supply without dismantling the pump and associated equipment.
How to Recognise the Problem
Any of the following symptoms will indicate a problem with iron bacteria or iron oxide deposits:
- Rusty slime inside pipes
- Cloudy, rusty water at pump start-up
- Reduced water flow from the bore
- Slimy deposits blocking main lines and laterals
- Unpleasant odor in water pumped from the well
- Slimy, rusty deposits in drippers and sprinklers
- Severe staining on pavements, walls foliage.
- Blackish-brown deposits indicates the presence of manganese oxide

Did you know?
- Iron bacteria and iron oxide contamination is estimated to affect over 40% of the world’s water bores.
- Mineral contamination restricts water production and clogs up pumps and pipes.
- Accumulated deposits can increase maintenance problems and create unpleasant working conditions for operators.
Iron Bacteria Contamination
Whilst all iron oxide deposits can be removed, it is not possible to completely eliminate iron bacteria contamination. However, regular use of BoreSaver Ultra C can control the problem and ensure the water supply and pumping equipment is working at maximum efficiency. The frequency of follow up cleaning will be determined by the natural conditions in the system although a twice yearly maintenance programme is recommended.
