Reservoir Size:
Surface area is 11.2 surface acres and maximum depth is 30 feet when full. Operating volume is 90 million gallons. There are 1000 roof support columns in the reservoir.
SolarBee Installation:
Date: August 2002: Installed two (2) SB10000-PW 10,000 circulators with 24-hour electric kits, and with horizontal intake plates set at one foot off the reservoir floor. In May 2005, both units were upgraded to the SB10000v12-PW model. At the same time, an injection manifold was mounted on the outside of each dish to facilitate even dispersal for chlorine boosting and breakpoint chlorination (if needed) after system converted to chloramine.
Project Objectives:
Sunset South had a history of stratification problems, short circuiting, high water age, and dead zones that lead to high nitrification potential. Primary goal is to provide complete mixing in order to reduce water age and prevent nitrification.
Whether solar- or electric-powered, SolarBee has the most competitive and complete tank mixer offering for the job. For more information on this or any other SolarBee installation, please call 866 437 8076.
