Enviro-Hex Guard
Coverhex Enviro-Hex Guard insulated floating cover system (patented) is the result of intense and extensive research leading to a product which fulfills demands of an affordable, wind resistant, high insulation (R17+), floating cover for liquids.
This floating insulated cover offers highly effective solutions to problematic liquid storage systems such as municipal and industrial wastewater, treatment processing plants, metal and petrochemical plants, leachate ponds, airports, raw water reservoirs and other applications for heat retention, photosynthesis prevention and or a wildlife deterrent.
The Enviro-Hex Guard insulated cover system ensures coverage of up to 95%. The resulting thermal insulation barrier combines the insulation factor of the polyurethane foam held in each tile with the poor heat conductivity of plastic. While the small air pockets between the tiles are not sealed, they also contribute to this insulation system, which dramatically reduces heat loss and light transfer. The cover also reduces liquid loss through evaporation and prevents odor problems.
The Enviro-Hex Guard insulated cover, contrary to standard covers, does not represent an obstacle to static, moving or dipping equipment. The tiles can be easily pushed aside and the cover reforms itself as the basin and obstacles change configuration, as in a clarifier. In fact, the tiles will keep up with liquid level, rising, lowering and restacking themselves as needed.
Enviro-Hex Guard insulated covers are also an effective wildlife deterrent. When entirely covered, the body of water becomes unattractive to waterfowl and other wildlife such as deer. They simply don’t recognize it as water.
Compared to netting, Enviro-Hex Guard insulated cover are not sensitive to ice or snow damage and do not require any kind of support.
Enviro-Hex Guard insulated covers are produced with high quality high density polyethylene. The expected life time is 25 years. The insulating material is made of soy based, long lasting polyurethane foam.
