Then pump it like crazy. Then when I shock a well I like to have 250 or 500 gallons of heavily chlorinated water in a tank. Pump the well near empty if possible, and fill the casing to the top with chlorine and let the head pressure go into the formation.

I usually do this on a weekend my family isn't home so it can stay like that for a day or so before I pump the well out.
