The Scovill Zoo is proud to house a waddle of Humboldt Penguins. These playful creatures are housed in an exhibit at the zoo featuring a 4,800-gallon pool that has both above ground and underwater viewing for guests enjoyment.

Robert Satchell, founding member of Satchell Engineering & Associates, designed the aquatic Life Support System for this exhibit. The system utilizes a fine filtration system that consists of sand filters and pumps, deaeration towers, ozone disinfection, off-gas destruct, and heat exchangers.
