When people think about infrastructure, they tend to think of the roads that are finished, the neighborhoods commercial structures, or industrial infrastructure. But what they don’t often see is the complex system working behind the in the background to move water in a safe and efficient manner every day. If you are looking for an infrastructure that’s reliable It starts with engineering and not just choosing the right equipment.
Every project has its own unique site conditions as well as flow requirements and environmental regulations. Romtec Utilities treats each pumping station individually, instead of making use of standard designs. Engineers who are aware of how systems function over time are able to design solutions that will remain reliable even after construction.

Custom designs solve real-world challenges
There are no two developments that share the same pumping requirements. The requirements for operation of the municipal utility differ from the requirements of an industrial plant. Residents also need different capacities for systems than commercial developments.
A properly designed package pumping system combines structural, mechanical, electric and control components in a single solution customized for the specific requirements of the project. This custom-designed approach simplifies construction and reduces maintenance concerns, while improving longevity of the system.
Romtec Utilities is involved in the planning stage of a project by working directly with engineers, contractors and developers as well as other government agencies. The early assistance in engineering and budgeting helps project teams identify solutions before construction begins to avoid delays that could be unnecessary.
Making sure that wastewater systems are operating effectively
To safeguard the environment and public health, reliable wastewater collection is vital. If gravity isn’t enough to effectively transport wastewater the system is engineered to become an integral part of the system for collection.
A properly designed wastewater lift station keeps wastewater flowing efficiently between collection points and treatment facilities. Installations should consider the projected flow rates, future growth, accessibility to maintenance as well as equipment reliability and potential expansion.
Instead of selling off-the shelf systems, Romtec Utilities develops wastewater lift stations that meet each owner’s requirements for operational. The pumps, valves and monitoring systems, along with controls are carefully chosen to ensure their performance is reliable, while simplifying maintenance for maintenance personnel.
Get communities ready for weather changes
The drainage infrastructure of many communities is being strained by the increasing frequency of heavy rainfall events, and development. Effective stormwater management is important for protecting homes, business roads, waterways, and other roads.
A stormwater lift-station engineered by engineers helps to control runoff, by making sure that excess water is safely moved through detention ponds and drainage networks. A well-designed facility decreases risk of flooding while aiding in environmental compliance and safeguarding the surrounding ecosystems.
Because every property presents unique drainage features, Romtec Utilities custom engineers each stormwater pumping solution according to predicted flow conditions, elevations on the site and long-term operating requirements. This attention to specifics allows the system to function reliably in routine weather conditions, as well as severe storms.
After construction, support continues
A successful pumping system involves more than simply getting equipment to a job location. The performance of the installation is dependent on proper startup, commissioning and documentation.
Romtec Utilities is in constant contact with the customer throughout the process to ensure a smooth transition from design to operational. The comprehensive testing of systems proves their effectiveness. Detailed operation manuals, as well as hands-on training and detailed instructions provide the maintenance team with all they require to know in order to keep the equipment running effectively.
If the project calls for an individual pump station, a fully integrated package pumping system, a reliable wastewater lift station, or a unique stormwater lift station, Romtec Utilities focuses on building solutions that deliver lasting value. Romtec Utilities assists businesses, communities and utilities to invest in infrastructure that will be reliable over the years through the combination of engineering expertise and personal customer service.
