Tideflex Mixing System Eliminates Stagnation in Potable Water Tanks


(CARNEGIE, PA - November 18, 2008) Many potable water tanks or reservoirs depend on a typical common inlet/outlet to maintain drinking water quality. This system often proves inadequate when water outside the common inlet/outlet area of influence becomes stagnant, creating dead spots where bacteria are likely to multiply.

Tideflex Technologies' Tideflex® Mixing System (TMS) greatly improves the quality of drinking water in finished water storage reservoirs. The TMS is a combination of patented Tideflex® Check Valve technology and a piping manifold that separates the inlet and outlet. The TMS can be installed in new or existing water storage tanks of all shapes and sizes to eliminate stagnation and short-circuiting. Operating on the differential pressure that is already in place, the TMS keeps energy costs low, while the all-elastomer construction of the Tideflex® Check Valve renders the system virtually maintenance free.
