Loved Historical Accounts of Cisterns...

"I really loved the historical accounts of cisterns by some of your readers. Being raised a city boy, I know there is on way on earth I could drink water from a cistern. I was talking to a lady from Arkansas about a month ago. She said they have a water well, and some time back it got to tasting really bad. So she called the 'water well man'. He pulled the submersible pump, and cleaned it, than dropped it back into the well. The water was fine after that. But he told her if it gets to doing it again, just pour a gallon of Clorox down the well, let it set a few hours, then let it pump out until the water is clean again. The Clorox will clean the well pump of the bad tasting residue that collects around the pump."   |  View or Add Comments (0 Comments)   |   Receive updates ( subscribers)  |   Unsubscribe
