Reservoir cover systems
 
Anti-algae cover
We are also the right address for you for a cover for your water reservoir. 
While the water is stored it becomes polluted by the growth of algae with the result that irrigation systems become blocked with all the consequent problems this can cause.

Genafloat
Genap also has a solution in its range for water reservoirs. This cover system prevents the growth of algae, prevents evaporation as well and to a large extent prevents the water from becoming dirty. We supply this cover under the name Genafloat.
 
The Genafloat EX is a durable floating cover sheet for water reservoirs that prevents the growth of algae. The sheet is made from Aquatex EX and is surrounded by a water-filled flexible PE hose and is anchored in the dike. The cover sheet smoothes out wave-forming and decreases the evaporation surface by 80-90%. The water-filled PE hose forms a sound barrier against the wind. In all, this is a quality solution that will guarantee you good water quality for many years.    
 
Applications

  • excavated reservoirs, with or without intermediate dike(s)
  • every shape of reservoir with straight sides longer than seven metres, whether these are right-angled, tapered or L-shaped.
  • reservoirs with a depth of up to four metres and with bank slope of 45°
  • reservoirs that have already been fitted with embankment protection and in which there is a minimum depth of water of 50 cm at the time of fitting


Tensioned cover sheet

As well as a floating cover sheet we can also supply a tensioned cover sheet. This is made from Genatex 1000 PE banded fabric, colour black. The sheet has an open edge all round allowing a tube or heating pipe to be pushed around the edge. The sheet can then be tensioned using a strap and ratchet clasp.
