High performance wind resistant floating cover: Armor Ball Aqua 275

Armor Ball® AQUA: Water Filled Shade Ball Cover

Armor Balls AQUA by Advanced Water Treatment Technologies represents the pinnacle of innovation in water conservation. AWTT INC. Armor Balls® AQUA shade ball cover systems offer a simple and maintenance free solution to reduce heat loss, evaporation, algae growth and odors. These water evaporation balls are scientifically designed to form a protective layer over bodies of water, drastically reducing evaporation and preserving this precious resource more efficiently than ever before. And the best news is, you don’t need any special tools or equipment to deploy them.

With this floating water ball cover, you are not just conserving water; you’re actively investing in technology that supports the environment, saves costs on water replenishment, and maintains water quality by minimizing contamination and algae growth. It’s not just an innovation; it’s a revolution in responsible water management.

High surface area coverage is achieved by placing a sufficient amount of balls on the surface of the liquid. The balls arrange themselves to provide coverage of up to 91%. The result is a thermal insulation barrier which combines the insulation factor of the air held in each ball with the poor heat conductivity of plastic. While the air pockets between the balls are not sealed, they also contribute to this insulation system, which dramatically reduces heat loss and light transfer.

Armor Ball

The Armor Ball AQUA ball cover is constructed of polyethylene and is 100mm (4 inches) in diameter, with a weight ranging from 120g to 275g (depending on the application). The sturdy construction combined with the ballasting element inside the ball allow each element to float with about 30% to 50% of the ball submerge, making the cover wind resistant and preventing the balls from being blown out of the pond. Its sturdy construction ensure it is very durable, totally maintenance free, with airtight seals to contain the ballasting material (proprietary manufacturing techniques are used). Special HDPE formulation and ultraviolet stabilizers protect from the degrading effect of sunlight. Our insulated floating covers, featuring a 2.5-3” thick insulation and an R-value of 17, paired with the black polyethylene shell that absorbs heat from UV rays, offer an excellent insulation solution.

The Armor Balls® AQUA ball cover barrier, contrary to standard covers, does not represent an obstacle to static, moving or dipping equipment. The balls can be easily pushed aside and the cover reforms itself as the basin and obstacles change configuration, as in a clarifier. In fact, the balls will keep up with liquid level, rising, lowering and restacking themselves as needed.

In the battle against water loss, Armor Ball AQUA stands as a guardian of every drop. By covering reservoirs, ponds, or tanks, these ingenious spheres provide a cost-effective and easy-to-deploy solution, dramatically staunching unseen wastage due to evaporation.

AWTT’s innovative modular floating covers are revolutionizing storage solutions across multiple sectors such as potable water, wastewater management, industrial water reserves, agriculture, and oil & gas, among others. Our expertise has guided the transition from conventional defined sump floating covers to our advanced, adaptable modular systems.

Armor Balls® AQUA ball cover is 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, Armor Balls covers are not sensitive to ice or snow damage and do not require any kind of support.
