Since 1997 Ron Perrin Water Technologies has been a leader in potable water tank & tower inspection. We offer 3 different water tank & tower inspections. All of these inspections provide digital photos of inspection points and problem areas along with an underwater DVD so you can see the interior roof and floor of your water storage tank with no water loss or disruption in service. We take pride in offering you the most information for the least cost. 

Our potable water dive team is available to clean sediment from the floor of your water storage tanks, set plugs, and offer other underwater services.

Since 1997, we have worked for over 500 water utilities in over 8 U.S. states and Internationally in Mexico.

Divers prepare to go into a potable water storage tank by washing down with a 200ppm chlorine solution.  On this date 3 to 6 inches of sediment was removed form a 300,000 gallon tank.

The certified diver is wearing a dry suit and full face mask.  The dry suit ensures that no part of the divers body touches the water.  All of the equipment is purchased for and only used in potable water.  Many off-shore companies have a hard time sticking to this rule when they only work in potable water tanks occasionally.  RON PERRIN WATER TECHNOLOGIES divers work in potable water every week.  Potable water inspection and tank cleaning is #1 job. 

Having your water tanks inspected and cleaned when needed is the best way to insure the health of your system.

To ensure public health and structural safety potable water storage tanks should be inspected every year.  The only way you really know what is in a storage tank is to look. To avoid the unnecessary cost of draining storage tanks contractors like RON PERRIN WATER TECHNOLOGIES use underwater cameras to document the conditions of the facilities while they remain full of water.  If deep sediment levels are found specially trained divers wearing dry suits may be deployed to clean the tank.  The key to diving in potable water (treated drinking water) is the equipment.   All equipment used in the water system must be purchased for and only used in potable water.  If divers are used they wear DRY suits.  These specially designed suits enclose the diver in his own environment so no part of the person touches the water.  The diver or equipment used is then washed down with a chlorine solution meeting AWWA standards.  Below a diver prepares to enter the tank.

Since 1992 divers have been a part of keeping water tanks clean in Texas.  Divers are washed down with a 200ppm chlorine solution using gear that is purchased for and only used in potable water.  No part of the divers body touches the water.  Using a specially equipped  pump or air lift system they are then able to remove the sediment from the floor of the tank.   This is the most effective way to clean a potable water storage tank because it removes sediment that can be a habitat for bacteria and other contaminants.  Everything that is loose is removed  without damage to painted surfaces. This allows the chlorine in the system to more effectively do its job.
