United States Patent Awarded to EZZ-Klean™ Method

The EZZ-Klean™ System by Taylor Made Pump Stations* now offers a safer and more economical system for cleaning sewage wet wells and pits, storm water Retention basins, digesters and grease interceptors.

Mark Taylor PatentCleanliness, and safety for maintaining pump station wet wells, vaults digester sumps or just about any container for liquid waste is of prime importance. The DEQ, EPA and OSHA are especially sensitive to the implications of maintaining the highest quality of these factors and have stringent regulations that need to be considered in order for owners and workers to stay in compliance. In the past, the methods used to do the work needed to satisfy compliance with regulations were time consuming and cumbersome. The new method called “EZZ-Klean™” has been tested and proven. It has earned a US Patent to save time, costs, improve safety and remain in compliance.

The Patent for the EZZ-Klean™ method is based on utilizing the benefits of a sloped floor along with a wide mouth opening at or near the bottom the vault with a pipe that is accessible to a vacuum source from the top of the vault. This is what Mr. Garret Pallo, Principle Engineer with Civil West, liked about the EZZ-Klean™ System. Civil West recently designed the EZZ-Klean™ into a pump Station in Myrtle Point, Oregon. This created a more efficient and effective cleaning process. It can just be cleaned from above with a spray of water. This method was inspired when Taylor Made Pump Systems became aware of the time it was taking for workers to clean in confined spaces while also being in compliance with Oregon OSHA standards. These standards address particulars such as cleaning sludge, rocks, sticks and even bones which are known to cause pump impeller problems.

Along with being able to save time and costs, safety was another consideration that the engineers of EZZ-Klean™ wanted to make sure to address with their method. What theycome up with is a system that makes fall protection, ventilation equipment, retrieval tripods, spending a large amount of capital investment and labor hours obsolete. The EZZ-Klean™ method allows for ease of use and maintenance so owners and workers can save time and money while staying safe on the job. The EZZ Klean™ Method can be purchased through Oldecastle Concrete Store.
