What does the NO-DES system remove from the distribution water?
(A) The NO-DES flushing system can remove settled particulates, bio film, iron and manganese and some sources of color. The NO-DES unit as well as conventional flushing methods may not remove heavily encrusted “barnacle” types of long term rust buildup found inside old cast iron and steel mains. The fix for these issues may require “pigging” or other extensive, expensive and very intrusive solutions.
