City Parks Wastewater Lift Stations

City of Portland Parks answers the question, “Why purchase the Muni 105 EZZ-Klean™ Waste Water Lift Station?

The Portland Park System recently ordered a Taylor Made Park 105 EZZ-Klean™ Station. This new Waste Water Lift Station will replace a Waste Water Lift Station that Hydrogen Sulfides had eaten away causing the station to fail prematurely. Premature failure of pumping components is extremely common and costly and contributes greatly to expanding our carbon footprint. The new Taylor Made Park 105 EZZ-Klean™ Station features an epoxy coating for easy cleaning and lifelong hydrogen sulfide protection.

The City of Portland, Park Manager gave me direct feedback about why she chose us for the job. Engineers who work with Taylor Made Pump Stations often extol the benefits of the easy pump out features of our EZZ-Klean™ design, but it was somehow different to have these acknowledged by someone outside the industry.

Parks Wastewater Lift Station

The park manager as well as the park board’s enthusiasm about Taylor Made Pump Stations was due to the fact that our Taylor Made EZZ-Klean™ patented design addresses the regulatory issues of Oregon OSHA’s most recent confined space rules making your maintenance routine simple and safe. The bright green EZZ-Klean™ tube at the top of the station reminds your maintenance crew to simply “Pop the Top” to perform routine maintenance that is quick, easy and safe. Our lift stations save valuable time and money when compared to conventional wastewater lift stations.

Talking with our customers enlightens me to their concerns. Like so many clients, the park system chose us in part for the long-term operating and maintenance savings that our lift stations deliver. A more unique concern for the Portland Park System is the big challenge of having little trucks and other toys find their way into the lift stations pump basin. As harmless as that sounds, small metal toys or metal utensils wreak havoc on pump impellers. If you stick a fork in a pump it is usually the end of the pump!

Our stations protect the pump mechanism from foreign objects. Clogs and unnecessary damage will no longer cause headaches and expensive system repairs. Our one of a kind EZZ-Screen™ prevents accidentally flushed items such as metal toys, utensils and even rocks from damaging pump components.

The simple maintenance and cost effective savings of Taylor Made Park 105 EZZ-Klean™ Station won over the director and board of the Portland Park System. We know that more and more park systems will also discover how Taylor Made can save time and money and streamline their wastewater systems.
