Descalers – You Have a Choice

Not All Descalers Are Created Equal

Descalers are not all the same. The product you choose directly affects how well a rehabilitation job performs—and how long it takes to get results.

Most products on the market are diluted hydrochloric acid (HCl) with inhibitors added to reduce off-gassing. These formulations can remove some mineral buildup, but they typically do not address biofilm.

Why Biofilm Matters in Well Rehabilitation

Biofilm is a major factor in underperforming wells. It traps bacteria and minerals, making it harder for standard acid treatments to fully clean the system.

If biofilm is not removed, it can continue to cause problems even after descaling. This often leads to incomplete results, repeat treatments, and increased labor in the field.

A More Complete Descaling Approach

Cotey Chemical’s descaler is formulated to go beyond standard acid treatments. Instead of relying on a single active ingredient, it uses a broader combination designed to treat both mineral scale and biological fouling at the same time.

With one application, you can:

• Break down hard mineral scale
• Penetrate and remove biofilm
• Eliminate the need for multiple products
• Avoid complicated mixing procedures

Built for Safe, Practical Use

The formula includes inhibitors and polymers, making it safe for use in most wells when applied as directed. All Cotey Chemical products are NSF certified and approved for use in rehabilitation applications.
