Rural Water - Quarter 3, 2008 - (Page 51) “ SOLARBEE PUTS THE FRESHEST IN OUR LAKES AND WATER TANKS Greg Dluzak, Production and Control Superintendent, Treatment Plant, Palmdale, CA The treatment plant and reservoir at Palmdale, California always strives to maximize water quality. Part of the challenge was bluegreen algae that choked the reservoir all summer, giving the water bad taste and odor. At first, Greg Dluzak coped by dumping up to 2000 pounds of copper sulfate into the lake each week. But chemicals are costly – and they’ll cause environmental problems down the road. Always open to innovative solutions, Palmdale installed seven SolarBee® water circulators on the reservoir, and three more in the storage tanks. SolarBee’s near laminar flow worked wonders. “Those algae blooms were virtually eliminated and chemical treatments reduced to a minimum,” reported Mr. Dluzak. In fact, the lake’s water clarity doubled. Also, SolarBee® balanced the water temperature and improved the catch rate for sport fishermen. In the SolarBee is storage tanks, SolarBee’s thorough mixing keeps temperature stratification and stagnation NSF-Certified for your community’s to a minimum, thus providing good chlorine residual and reducing the risk of disinfection ® ® greatest protection. byproducts. Thanks to SolarBee , Palmdale’s water is clear and clean. “SolarBee keeps our water fresher than ever,” beams Mr. Dluzak. It can do the same for you.
