There are many amalgam separators on the market today.
We know. We've installed them all.... But after eliminating the problematic
brands, the SolmeteX™ Hg5® system stands out as the product of choice.
Here are some of the problems we have encountered with the competitors' products:
- Some require a 24-hr electric outlet (for its cheap clock timer and pump) that's often
unavailable at the vacuum system location! Do you want to hire an electrician to
install an outlet ?
- And in the event of a power outage, the timer has no memory-back-up battery,
which can result in a sudden loss of vacuum during your work day. The
SolmeteX™ Hg5® system requires NO electricity, NO Timers, NO Pumps!
- Some require a 2-hour "decanting" of the liquid from the separator before you can
send it away for recycling!...Would you want to do this or pay someone to do it for
you?
- Some require that you sign a form certifying that the contents of the recycling
container is free of the HIV virus & other disease for penalty of the container being
returned and/or additional fees being charged to you!!...Would you sign such a
form?? The SolmeteX™ Hg5® system requires no such certification by you. Simply
hand it to your UPS driver and away it goes!
- Some offer no provisions for mounting the separator on a wall or in a cabinet
where space is limited. Where will you fit one of those huge separators? The
SolmeteX™ Hg5® system can be floor standing, or wall mounted. And the
SolmeteX™ Hg5~Mini® system comfortably fits into a cabinet!
- Some require a non-cancelable annual recycling contract making it impossible to
change brands without penalty. Do you want to be locked in? The SolmeteX™
Hg5® system requires NO CONTRACT! You only pay for the recycling you need!
- Some have hoses & fittings that must be disconnected and reconnected when it's
time to recycle. Do you want to pay someone to do this for you each time? The
SolmeteX™ Hg5® system utilizes a replaceable filter cartridge that you or your
assistant can change in seconds with NO TOOLS!!
- Some are supplied with low-grade hoses commonly available at home
improvement centers. These are fine for draining your pool, but have a tendency to
collapse under vacuum pressure. Our EZ Install kits contain the highest quality,
non-collapsible tubing available!
- Some will actually have you 'ladeling' the collected sludge from the separator into a
storage container for recycling by "others". Do you want to jeopardize your health
& safety by handling bio-hazardous waste materials in order to comply with the law?
With the SolmeteX™ Hg5® system, these hazardous materials remain safely within
the easily replaced container; your hands never touch it!
