Can the NO-DES system be used for flushing after water main repairs?
(A) YES – This issue is a big concern with water providers, not only have you just seen large amounts of good treated drinking water spill down the gutters during a water main break, but once repairs are complete, your crews are now going to flush the area to waste to ensure that the water is safe and clean. If you owned a NO-DES unit, you could flush the area of concern and add disinfectant without wasting more water, something that has never been performed before, but always desired. Now by using the NO-DES system, not only is the water clean and safe, it’s also ready for Bac-T sampling.
