No Taste & Odor Events –JM, California

"We have NOT had any Taste & Odor events this year, so far! MIB and Geosmin have been non-detectable."

Increased Wildlife –NP, New York

"The pond now "looks great!" There is no evidence of any green slime on the pond surface, which was thick this time last year. We are also seeing an increase in wildlife; frogs, birds, birds of prey. The pond was a smelly stagnant eyesore last year, but not this year."

Very Happy –TC, California

"Our operators are very happy with the six SolarBees installed for the county this summer! They have not had to boost since the installation. They cannot believe it! In the past they have had to boost every 1-2 weeks."

No Algae Blooms –KM, California

"We have had Solarbees for 4 years in our lake, and I am happy to report that we have not had an algae bloom since they have been installed."

Best Purchase –RN, California

Nice & Clear Lake –DL, California

"The lake looks very nice and clear now. Normally it would be mossy looking. We have seen a definite improvement since we installed the Solarbees. I am very happy with the SolarBees."

Best Secchi Readings Ever –EJ, Florida

"The lake water quality is much improved since the installation of the SolarBee. We saw less algal blooms, less water stratification and the best secchi readings ever since the SolarBee installation. We are very happy with the performance of the SolarBee."

Good People -RM, New York

"The installation went well, you have very good people throughout [your] company."

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."

Pond Looks Like An Ad –JS, Massachusetts

"Our pond looks like an ad for Poland Spring, with very good clarity!"

Enjoying Improvements –PN, Arkansas

"We are enjoying the improvements SolarBees have provided our reservoir."

More Zooplankton –DB, California

"Excellent! I am seeing more zooplankton than ever before. In the past we have had clear water this time of year - but it was due to a blue algae die off and the fish were skinny. There was no zooplankton - very unhealthy. We would also be subject to severe filament algae blooms. This does not occur anymore - we have clean water that is healthy and the fish are flourishing!"

Very Reliable & Met Objectives –DC, Colorado

"The two SolarBee's installed in 2007 have been very reliable and have met their objectives. We actively recommend your company to anyone with water issues in the area and you might expect a call from someone with the Colorado Dept of Health in the future."
