Benefits of Sub-Sand Sea Water Abstraction

Fish farms, prawn hatcheries, research laboratories, swimming pools, marine aquaria and desalination plants can all benefit from 
a system pioneered on the English coast in 1965, whereby the sea water is drawn from BELOW THE SAND in the beach. 
(See Sub-Sand Sea Water Intakes for a full account)

THE PROVEN BENEFITS OF THIS TECHNIQUE INCLUDE............ TOTAL EXCLUSION OF ALL FOULING ORGANISMS, PARASITES  AND PLANKTON. GREAT REDUCTION IN BACTERIA. BEACH SAND BECOMES AN ASSET AND NOT THE PROBLEM  IT OFTEN IS. ALL DEBRIS AND OIL POLLUTION EXCLUDED. ALL INCOMING WATER IS PRE-FILTERED. MORE CONSTANT TEMPERATURE AND SALINITY POSSIBLE. CONTINUOUS PUMPING IS OFTEN POSSIBLE FROM FLAT SANDY BEACHES EVEN WHEN THE TIDE IS OUT DUE TO THE RESERVOIR EFFECT Of THE BEACH.
