Hoover proposed a solution for the most immediate requirement - the design and installation of a supplemental system, a high-volume, low-pressure pump station capable of drawing, filtering, and supplying water directly from a canal to the client's existing tank. This would provide crucial augmentation while reclaimed water remained inconsistent and sometimes unavailable.
From the initial project - essentially to keep the water tank full with a regular supply of water - within a year, the project had expanded to a more sustainable solution with vastly increased capacity, involving the design and installation of a quintuple 75-horsepower centrifugal pump station.
This powerful system, capable of over 5,500 gallons per minute, was integrated with the client's new 2 million-gallon tank, ensuring sufficient capacity for the entire 7,000-acre project's irrigation needs. A triple 50-horsepower backup system was also installed to serve a two-fold purpose: supporting the back half of the property to handle growth, and overcome any infrastructure limitations; effectively future-proofing the site's further development.
Our client's decision to embrace Hoover’s centrifugal design, departing from conventional builds, underscores the trust we built with them, based solidly on our proven performance and pump station design capabilities.
