The Hydro-Guard system uses modern technologies, including SCADA compatibility, to monitor water quality in distribution piping and automatically initiate flushing as necessary to maintain disinfectant residuals as required by the EPA. This system conserves water, reduces chlorine consumption, and improves customer satisfaction by helping avoid taste and odor, while requiring virtually no supervision by utility personnel. On average, one Hydro-Guard Automatic Flushing System can save as much as 180,000 gallons of water and more than $7,000 annually compared to traditional hydrant flushing methods.
