Delivering Superior Water Quality—Powered by the Sun
Clean Water. Zero Utility Power. Maximum Reliability.
The Big Wave Water Technologies Solar-Powered Reservoir Mixing System is an innovative solution designed to maintain high water quality in potable water storage tanks where electrical service is unavailable, difficult to install, or cost prohibitive.
Using advanced solar technology, the system continuously powers a high-efficiency submersible mixer that eliminates thermal stratification, maintains disinfectant residuals, reduces water age, and improves overall distribution system performance—all without requiring grid power.
Whether installed on new reservoirs or retrofitted to existing tanks, the Solar-Powered Reservoir Mixing System provides dependable, autonomous operation while significantly reducing operating costs. We have solutions that are engineered to run with the sun or with battery backup.
Why Reservoir Mixing Matters
Water stored in reservoirs naturally stratifies as temperatures change throughout the day and across the seasons. Without active mixing, this stratification can create stagnant zones that contribute to:
- Loss of chlorine residual
- Elevated water age
- Taste and odor complaints
- Increased disinfection by-products (THMs and HAAs)
- Corrosion caused by humid headspace conditions
- Reduced overall water quality
Powered by Renewable Energy
Our solar-powered system eliminates the need for utility power by combining:
- High-efficiency photovoltaic solar panels
- Intelligent charge controller
- Battery energy storage
- High-efficiency brushless DC motor technology
The result is a self-contained mixing system capable of operating day and night while requiring minimal operator attention.
