Grand Rapids Industrial Water Treatment Systems

Client Challenge: Owner was having trouble maintaining consistent water quality for automatic car wash facility. He was interested in replacing the valves to upgrade his equipment as the water quality is critical to insure the quality of the washes for his customers. While water usage is fairly consistent throughout the month, it fluctuates greatly based on weather and high traffic times. He has had a long-standing relationship with Besco in the Greater Lansing market and trusted Besco’s reputation for good service and innovative ideas. Besco Solution: We went in to assess the feasibility of rebuilding their current water treatment system versus replacing it with new equipment. We completed a cost analysis and presented the advantages of upgrading their system with the goals of maintaining consistent water quality, improving efficiency, and creating versatility for potential future growth. Our engineers designed a water treatment system with a computerized control system to monitor flow rates and activate tanks based on water flow to keep up with their varying daily usage pattern. So, during the slower times when the demand for water is low, only one softening unit is online. As business escalates and the demand for water increases, the Besco-designed control system activates additional softening tanks to satisfy the current demand for water. This ensures that Soapy Joe’s maintains consistent water quality throughout the day and maximizes the efficiency of the system, saving salt and water, by eliminating unnecessary regenerations. In addition, the design of the system provides for future growth which is very important to this client. The system can be customized to meet increasing water demands.
