GutterWitch Pour N' Go is non-chlorine product for the treatment of domestic and commercial water storage tanks. It is suitable for the control of all contaminants normally found in water that is obtained from rainwater collection areas, streams, ponds and springs. It is safe and easy to use, and when used correctly and sensibly will give rapid and pleasing results.

Water Tank Hygiene

Water is the one foodstuff for which there is no substitute. It is a universal solvent, and sustains life forms of all types. For this reason it can be the carrier of all sorts of dissolved materials, biological life forms, diseases, and toxic contaminants. Contamination can include bacteria, coliforms, viruses, cysts, pesticides, and dissolved minerals such as iron and manganese.

Rainwater, once thought to be better quality than town water, healthier, purer, and free of any added chemicals, is increasingly becoming a cause of concern. It can be exposed to many pollutants, such as insects, bird droppings, dust, agricultural sprays etc. Pollutants in a rainwater tank can become concentrated, whereas they may be diluted in a running steam. Cysts, such as Giardia and Cryptosporidium, are also a real possibility in rainwater tanks because of faecal matter from animals and birds on the roof, and bacteria such as Legionella and Campylobacter can be carried in the air. Recent studies in New Zealand have shown that more than 50% of rainwater supplies are contaminated.

Water Tank Treatment

Treatment of domestic tanks can be difficult because of the many variables, and the way they can change from day to day. Contamination in a water tank can infect the plumbing system of a dwelling, and infections like Legionella can be passed on, not only through the drinking water, but through baths and showers as well. An effective, affordable method of treating tanks therefore relies a lot on common sense and the use of an effective treatment program.

Effective treatment therefore usually requires a number of steps to be followed to provide safe, fresh, healthy water, free of the dangerous inhabitants we wish to avoid.

To be suitable for rainwater tanks, a disinfectant should;-

• Be a powerful disinfectant, safe to use & effective against harmful contaminants
• Provide a long lasting effect
• Be non polluting to the environment
• Be approved in NZ for addition to drinking water
• Be tasteless & odourless
• Be effective over a wide pH and temperature range
• Not form any undesirable chemical by-products
• Leave the water fresh, pure and healthy
