Product Description
Water Well Screen Pipe: Essential Protection for Sustainable
Aquifer Development
Water well screen pipe is a critical component in the construction
of water supply, irrigation, and monitoring wells. Its primary
function is to provide stable access to groundwater by supporting
the borehole wall while allowing clean water to efficiently enter
the well and preventing the influx of sand, fine sediments, and
other aquifer materials. Made from durable materials such as
stainless steel, PVC, or galvanized steel, water well screen pipes
feature precisely designed and manufactured filtration slots. These
slots are engineered based on the grain size analysis of the
surrounding formation to achieve optimal hydraulic efficiency and
long-term sand control. Unlike a simple perforated pipe, a properly
designed screen pipe maximizes well yield, minimizes
sediment-related pump damage and maintenance costs, and ensures the
longevity and clarity of the water source. It is the key to
constructing an efficient, reliable, and sustainable water well
that delivers clean water for years to come.

Performance Features
Optimal Hydraulic Efficiency: Engineered slot design provides maximum open area for water entry
with minimal flow resistance, enhancing specific capacity and well
yield.
Precision Sand Control: Slot size and geometry are scientifically selected based on
formation sieve analysis to effectively block aquifer sands and
fine particles while allowing clear water flow.
Corrosion & Incrustation Resistance: Available in materials like stainless steel (304/316) and PVC to
resist chemical corrosion, biological fouling, and mineral scale
buildup, ensuring long service life.
High Structural Strength: Robust construction withstands installation stresses, formation
pressures, and collapse loads to maintain screen integrity at
depth.
Durability & Longevity: Designed for decades of reliable service, reducing the need for
frequent rehabilitation or replacement of the water well.
Customizable Design: Slot size (continuous wire-wrapped, mill-slotted, or louvered),
pipe diameter, length, and material can be customized to suit
specific hydrogeological conditions and project requirements.
Primary Applications
Residential & Municipal Water Supply Wells: Providing clean, sediment-free water for homes, communities, and
towns.
Agricultural Irrigation Wells: Ensuring reliable, high-volume water delivery for crop irrigation
systems.
Industrial Process & Cooling Water Wells: Supplying water for
manufacturing, power generation, and other industrial needs.
Groundwater Monitoring & Remediation Wells: Used in environmental sites for accurate groundwater sampling,
level measurement, and contaminant extraction or injection.
Geothermal Heat Pump Systems: Serving as the groundwater exchange component in open-loop
geothermal installations.
Dewatering & Construction Wells: Controlling groundwater levels at excavation sites, mines, and
construction projects.
Customer Feedback
"These water well screen pipes have been our primary choice for
high-yield irrigation wells. Their precise slot design delivers
optimal water flow while completely eliminating sand pumping
issues. The corrosion-resistant construction has significantly
extended well life in our mineral-heavy groundwater. Installation
is straightforward, and we've reduced maintenance costs by over 40%
since switching to this solution." – Water Well Drilling Contractor
FAQ
1. What is a water well screen pipe?
A water well screen pipe is a slotted filter installed in a well to
allow clean water to flow in while keeping out sand, sediment, and
other particles. It is essential for protecting pumps, ensuring
water clarity, and maximizing the well's lifespan and efficiency.
2. What are the main types of water well screens?
The most common types are:
Wire-wrapped screens (continuous slot): Best for high yield and
precise sand control; ideal for demanding wells.
Mill-slotted screens: A durable, cost-effective option for many
standard applications.
Louvered screens: Often used for specific industrial or dewatering
needs.
The best choice depends on your water quality, well depth, and
usage.
3. How is the right slot size chosen?
Slot size is carefully selected based on a professional sieve
analysis of soil and sand samples from your well site. This ensures
the screen blocks the right amount of sediment while allowing
optimal water flow—preventing both sand pumping and reduced water
yield.
