Water Systems have traditionally been limited to two options for cleaning and inspecting a reservoir or storage tank: empty the tank or send in divers. Both methods are costly, labor-intensive and raise personal safety issues. In addition, both options may require taking the tank offline, which can adversely affect the distribution system and result in a potential main break, loss of storage capacity and water quality problems.

Now there is a safer, less expensive and more effective way to clean and inspect water tanks without taking them offline -- the WEDA Water VR-600. The VR-600 uses a remote-operated, submersible vehicle to clean and inspect the bottoms of reservoirs without draining them or using divers.
