The options chosen for each System will be site and application specific.
Each design is dependent on:
- Zones of interest
- Geology of the site
- Monitoring methods preferred
- Cost considerations
- Borehole depth, diameter and type
Refer to the drawings below, then select the type of installation that suits your project. Consider the size and depth of each borehole, and whether casing is to be present. Decide if permanent or temporary Systems are preferred, the number of zones and depth of each zone per System, the monitoring options preferred, and any special materials required.
During development of your plans, the Solinst technical staff will be pleased to help evaluate the options and customize a System that best suits your needs.

Waterloo Systems have been used to monitor:
• Salt water intrusion
|
• DNAPL & LNAPL spill sites
|
• Industrial cleanups
|
• Waste disposals/landfills
|
• Pipeline leaks
|
• Soil gas surveys
|
• Dam leakage/rehabilitation
|
• Contaminant identification/cleanup
|
The Waterloo System has been specified by various industries and consultants for numerous sites across the United States, Canada and overseas. Waterloo Systems have been specified and approved at several sites with Superfund or RCRA designations and in each of the U.S. E.P.A. regions.
The System has been used for:
- Defining groundwater flow patterns
- Performance monitoring of pump and treat systems
- Identification and determination of spatial distribution of contaminants
- Early warning system/detection of migrating contaminants
