Sediment builds up in water storage tanks & towers. This company inspects drinking water tanks with a underwater camera, a Remotely Controled Vehicle (ROV) and when needed a diver. This sample video will show you a Video Ray ROV inspecting a clearwell, a diver inspecting a clearwell and then we will watch a diver cleaning a welded steel potable water ground storage tank.
It is important to know if the tanks have a sediment build up. The water storage tanks hold treated water until the consumer uses it. The sediment in the floor of a water storage tank can be a habitat for bacteria and other contaminates. Since the water has already been treated the consumers can be served contaminated water if bacteria or other contamination starts to grow in the tanks. Inspections that allow water utility officials to actually see the floor of the facility allow them know if the tanks are dirty and to get the tanks cleaned when needed.
A dive crew can remove all loose sediment and is a much more effective way to keep the tanks clean than a bucket & shovel. visit www.ronperrin.com
