Waterguard Liquid Blanket x 5 Pack

Waterguard – Liquid blanket to save water
A liquid ‘blanket’ to reduce evaporation! SAVE WATER!

WaterGuard is a unique liquid that spreads over the surface of the water to form a very thin film and reduce evaporation. Many people are familiar with Aquarian, the first silicone-based liquid for evaporation control. WaterGuard is a new, improved formulation manufactured by Aquarian Products (Pty) Ltd which is even more effective and more economical for reducing evaporation from farm dams, reservoirs and pools.

How Does It Work?
WaterGuard is produced from polymers that repel each other very strongly when they contact the water. This results in a strong spreading action across the surface, forming a liquid ‘blanket’ to reduce evaporation.

Is WaterGuard Safe?
The components of WaterGuard are safe chemicals, and many of them are used in food and pharmaceutical applications.

Why Is It Important To Reduce Evaporation?
Water losses from evaporation are immense. A single square metre of the water surface can easily lose up to 8 litres to evaporation every day in summer, and a one-hectare dam can lose up to 80,000 litres. Water is essential for animals and growing crops.

Rain, Wave And Wind Action?

Once the film is in place, it is very resistant to disturbances. It will move around slowly over the surface, but will not build up at one end of the water body. In the event of rain, the blanket will not be affected as it will allow the rain to go through without disturbing the film.

What Savings Can You Expect With WaterGuard?
Trials in the US have achieved evaporation savings of 50% and above.

Application Methods
WaterGuard can simply be poured on to the water directly from the bottle, and it will spread rapidly across the surface.
Yes. Liquid blankets are recommended by the City of Cape Town as a water-saving mechanism.

Apply at a rate of 1ml per square meter of surface area. Therefore one bottle of 50ml will cover 50m2 (10m x 5m wide swimming pool/spa or fish pond). Reapply every 2-3 weeks on un-used pools/ponds/spas and between 1-2 weeks on frequently used pools & spas.
