Self Filling System and Auxiliary Water Tank

Some water districts will not issue permits to contractors for fire hydrant use. Sometimes there are no fire hydrants near a job site. In some areas, contractors are not permitted to use water from public lakes, rivers, or streams. When a suitable water source is not nearby, an auxiliary water tank and filling system prevents loss of time retrieving water from a distant source.

• Hauling additional water with an auxiliary tank may be the only way to avoid serious delays.
• Water from garden hoses may be the only water source available.With three or four garden hoses running continuously into an auxiliary water tank, significant delays can be avoided on jobs requiring multiple tank loads.
• Even when fire hydrant water is available, if the hydrant is too far away, the auxiliary water tank system will prove to be a major time saver.

• • Clear Water Hose Flushing System

    Clear water can be used for flushing the pump system and also for clearing the mulch from the application hose. No mulch left in the application hose eliminates clogging.
