Increasing studies into the quality of tank water have found some disturbing facts that challenge the notion of tank water superiority. Sure it is chemical free and, in general, tastes far better than town water, but in most cases tank water contains significant quantities of micro organisms, many of which can be very detrimental to your health.
Just as importantly to most people is taste and the fresher, more highly oxygenated water from the upper levels in your tank is noticeably better tasting. The Water Boy carries a 10 year guarantee but will last for many more. How Does The WaterBoy Tank Water System Work?Water tanks store not just water. They also collect everything else from your roof (or from the stream) and provide a perfect haven for a multitude of microbes in the resulting layer of matter on the bottom of the tank. Yet this is the layer from which water is drawn into your house. Wouldn't it be better to get the water from the top of the tank where it is cleaner? That is why the Waterboy Tank Water System was developed.
Obviously drawing water from the worst zone (as illustrated in the diagram) is not desirable and the Waterboy gets the water from the best zone - at the top of your tank. Like all good innovations it is simple and it works brilliantly. Not only does it get your water away from the zone where the bugs like to reside, it also gets you the cleanest and tastiest water in the tank! i.e. just below the surface. It tastes better because it is fresh, highly oxygenated and does not contain the debris that has settled out - material such as leaf fragments, bird or possum poo, dirt and dust that has washed off your roof.
The Waterboy automatically adjusts to the changing water level in your tank and you need never worry that it isn't working because it always is. Waterboy Tank System
The Waterboy draws water from the top of your tank rather than the bottom providing you with fresher tasting, oxygenated water. There are many varieties of bacteria in your water and the majority are completely harmless but there are several common varieties that often cause problems. E-coli and Campylobacter, for example, when ingested in sufficient quantities cause dysentery. The actual concentration of these bacteria in the water is a very good indication of the water quality. Obviously the fewer the better. Bacteria are mostly spread in the faeces of birds and animals. The conditions on the bottom of most tanks provide a good environment for them and they multiply, feeding on the small quantity of nutrients available at the bottom of the tank. These nutrients are primarily provided by the breakdown of organic matter, a process that itself depletes oxygen, resulting in a low oxygen zone near the bottom that, in general favours the bacteria. As well as bacteria there are single-celled organisms include the very unpleasant parasites Giardia and Cryptosporidium that live and breed in the intestines of mammals and birds. Most tanks have few or no cysts present though the incidence is much higher if rodents or possums can access the roof or if the tank is filled from a stream. Impurities, such as dirt, leaves, paint flakes, insects etc, are not strictly a health issue; however they create other problems. They
A WaterBoy unit will drastically reduce these problems immediately and permanently. We want you to be 100% satisfied with your Waterboy and so we would like to point out that the entire unit is non-toxic. The components are food-grade polyethylene (as is used in plastic water tanks), stainless steel and EVA. EVA is used medically and so is higher than food-grade (see here for example). When ordering, please specify your tank construction and the outlet pipe diameter.
