Case Study: Stone Eagle Golf Club Homeowner’s Association
WaterIQ Technologies was contacted by the Stone Eagle home-owners association located in Palm Desert, California, in March 2024 to treat an algae-impacted pond surrounded by multi-million dollar homes. Previously, the home-owners association had applied copper sulfate to treat the pond with no success. Water samples were taken by WaterIQ, and the dominant blue-green algae was identified as Lyngbya. Lyngbya was causing problems with the locals due to its appearance, the poor aroma, and the potential danger to humans and animals.

The Pulsar 4400™ was developed to emit 4400 precise ultrasonic frequencies to target more species of harmful blue-green algae like Lyngbya. The Pulsar 4400™ algae control unit emits sound waves in a 360° pattern. The unit is designed to be suspended below the surface of the water. It is anchored to the bottom of the pond, suspended from the float in the approximate location pre-determined to be the best location in the pond/water for optimal coverage.
As you can see from the pictures, they show the algae retreating until the lake is almost clear. During the same period, the temperatures were rising which normally makes the algae much worse. The WaterIQ Pulsar was installed on the HOA pond...and the system is clearly working…. The system has proved effective…
