Ixom Watercare "Gold Star" Customer Comments

Saved Thousands –PR, Michigan

Lots Of Positive Comments –JE, Illinois

SolarBees Working Flawlessly –DC, California

"We have 4 SolarBees in our potable tanks. Our potable water system has a 30 MG storage capacity, but we could only utilize about 5 MG prior to the SolarBees. We were always trying to deep cycle, but were limited due to poor water quality. After the SolarBees were installed they doubled and tripled the use of our system. The SolarBees have been working flawlessly."

Great Product & Results- KH, Louisiana

"Just wanted to share this with you... We took a before and after [for THMs]. Before was 83 µg/l. After was 17 µg/l. NOT BAD!!!!! Great product!!!"

We Are Very Happy –RP, Colorado

"The south pond was running 4 days before we got the North pond running and in that time we evaporated 0.75" in the North Pond and 1.75" in the South Pond. In each pond that equates to 27 truck loads of 4365 gallons = 117,855 gallons. We are very happy at this time !!

Happy Neighbors –JS, Massachusetts

Smells Like Spring Instead Not Odors –CN, South Dakota

Cleanest & Best Looking Water –DB, California

"I stopped by the lake yesterday and went around the whole lake looking and some fishing - mostly looking.

No Algae Issues Ever Since -NW, Oregon

Project Success! –AP, Ohio

We have had great success with the SB1250 units in our other small park ponds as well."

Good Customer Service –JM, Vermont

"Not only does your company have fine products, but every person we deal with at your company does a great job! Good customer service is a rarity these days, and it’s not often that you find a sales representative to drive for hours and then use his musical talents to help raise the money to pay off a product that we bought from him! I’m glad that we have all become friends in the process."

Thanks For Checking –SM, Illinois

Started Working in 3 Hours –DW, New York

"We installed a SB1250V12PW in our 500,000 gal water tank. We positioned the SolarBee in a stagnant area of tank, opposite the common inlet/outlet pipe. After 3 hours of SolarBee operation we took a water sample at a nearby business that receives its water from this tank. The chlorine read 0.7. In the all the years that I have worked for the city, I have never seen it above 0.2. It must be the SolarBee already mixing the stagnant water in the tank."

Dedicated Crew –PS, Massachusetts

"Thanks to the installation crew for their dedicated work Tuesday! They were very professional, knowledgeable about the equipment and its operation, and a pleasure to work with. They worked in a safe and workmanlike manner, wearing all the necessary personal protective equipment throughout the day in the hot sun when it would be easy to shed their hard hat, safety glasses or life vests to work more comfortably."

Always Running –DM, North Carolina

"Tell your folks they make those things TOO well! Our crews are out on the lake every two weeks and the machines are always running whenever they check them. DO continues to be excellent."

Lower THMs -PG, California

"TTHMs went from the 90s µg/l to the 20s µg/l!"

An Exceptional Job –JZ, Wyoming

"Thanks for getting Steve back up here to fix our glitches. He is great to work with and did an exceptional job! Please pass that on to the powers that be!"

Even Temperature –KK, California

"The SolarBee is doing what it is supposed to do since the temperature top to bottom is only tenths of a degree different. The chlorine residual only drops about a tenth each month."

60% Energy Savings –DS, Pennsylvania

"We have seen a huge energy savings; about 60%. Our electric bill has gone from $3,000 to $1,200. We are interested in purchasing more units."

Nice & Clear Lake –DL, California
