Aquafix unite operate year-round, even in harsh winter settings, when Aquafix units are protected by our propane heating units, controlled by thermocouples to maintain temperature in the insu­lated operating shed between 45 to 85 degrees F. Such units require minimal human monitoring.

  Below is the basic Aquafix unit with a 2,000-pound storage bin. The unit is mounted on a concrete pad. Drive water is piped in underground. A metal building will be installed over the concrete pad and Aquafix unit.

  

 

 

 

 

    The size of an Aquafix unit is relataively small, as shown in the photo above. A large stor­age silo for pebble lime dominates the setting. The Aquafix unit itself generally is enclosed in a steel shed (shown under construction in photo above) which pro­tects the system from both harsh weather and vandalism. Larger storage silos enable continuous operation over extended periods of time without the need for replenishing the lime supply.
