Each wave attenuator model, in full.
WaveEater Model 4870
Introduced in 2022 our new patented Model 4870 is an evolution of our successful model 3636. The top unit is 26 inches in diameter by 48 inches long. Connected to the underside is a 48 inch wide by 51 inch waffle which reduces the wave energy below the surface, while still allowing for water to circulate thereby reducing algae or sediment buildup.
Materials. Constructed from high strength molded polyethylene the units are 26 in (66 cm) in diameter by 48 in (122 cm) long. There is a 2 in (5 cm) fill hole if partial submergence is required. The attached waffle is 47 in (119 cm) wide by 51 in (130 cm) long.
Colors. Standard colors are high visibility orange and white. Other attenuator colors are available on request (minimum 50 units).
Economical. Material cost as low as $175.00 per lineal foot.
Configuration. Model 4870 designs are most generally constructed in three effective dissipation configurations: single, double or three string patterns. In deciding which attenuator system is right for you consult with factory engineering support. Other important factors to consider are the length of the water column and lessening of water depth as the wave approaches shore.

WaveEater Model 3636
WaveEater Model 3636 has been in use for over thirty (30) years. It is used in any number of applications including wave attenuation, dam protection, shore erosion control and debris booms in the US and other parts of the world.
Materials. Constructed from high strength molded polyethylene the units are 36 in (91.4 cm) in diameter by 36 in (91.4 cm) long. There is a 2 in (5 cm) fill hole if partial submergence is required.
Colors. Standard colors are high visibility orange and white. Other attenuator colors are available on request (minimum 50 units).
Economical. Material cost as low as $160.00 per lineal foot.
Configuration. WaveEater designs are most generally constructed in three effective dissipation configurations: straight line, three string or sawtooth. In deciding which attenuator system is right for you consult with factory engineering support. Other important factors to consider are the length of the water column and lessening of water depth as the wave approaches shore.

WaveEater Model 2648
WaveEater unit Model 2648 measures 26” diameter x 48” long and is designed for areas that require a high visibility barrier with some attenuation. The Model 2648 is an excellent choice as a deterrent to boats and jet skis entering a swim or recreational areas where safety is a concern.
Its price point also makes it economical for use in dam demarcation, shoreline erosion control, natural beach nourishment, large chemical pond effluent containment and liner protection.
Economical. Material cost as low as $95.00 per lineal foot.

WaveEater Model 1224
WaveEater Model 1224 is a premier product for use in open water swim areas and as a beach erosion mitigation system in small environmentally sensitive locations. Many State Parks and Homeowners Associations have found the 1224 breakwater system to be far superior to other forms of wave barriers. The size of the attenuators allows them to be seen from much further away, and the option of submerging them partially to create some wave attenuation is a benefit to the area users.
Due to our manufacturing process of molded polyethylene and UV inhibitors, these wave attenuators have a far longer life span than other products currently on the market. Since 1995 there have been wave barrier systems in place with no required replacement parts due to material degradation.
Materials. Constructed from high strength molded polyethylene the wave attenuators are 12 in in diameter by 24 in long. There is a 3/4 in fill hole if partial submergence is required.
Colors. Standard colors are high visibility orange and white. Other colors are available on request (minimum 50 units).
Economical. Material cost is under $90.00 per lineal foot.
