Structure’s Innovative Design Maximizes Water Control

A new patent pending water control structure from Hancor is ideal for lowering and raising water in wetland conservation applications and pond equalization. This watertight structure is easy to operate, install and maintain.

The Water Control Structure offers timely, precise water control to improve water quality by reducing contaminants, provides flood control, assists with erosion control, ground water recharge, and provides a habitat and food source for wildlife. It retains exact targeted water amounts because water levels are adjustable in 1-inch increments.

The Water Control Structure can be installed quickly and easily because all internal components are installed prior to delivery and it has self-leveling capability. The lightweight HDPE body and stainless steel components provide for the desired long service life. Plus its design allows a variety of pipe materials to be used with the structure.

Another feature is a locking lid that prevents unauthorized personnel from readjusting water levels. This product has many applications - on farm ponds, wetland areas, golf courses, commercial and residential developments, livestock waste stops or for irrigation ditches. The Water Control Structure has a full five-year limited warranty. Visit www.hancor.com or call 1-888-367-7473.
