  • Matching demands for the most with the least
    Large buildings are prone to enormous variations in their water use. Any new system would need to match these variations using the least amount of energy. Here's how the world's largest commercial building met this challenge with a system that will not only pay for itself on energy-savings, but will also pay the costs to replace itself in its lifetime.
  • Retrofitting planetary gearboxes at test sites
    In a bid to become as energy efficient as possible, Anglian Water asked Bravini to find an alternative to the old screw pump gearboxes at their trial site in Maldon. Planetary gearboxes were identified as the answer and since their installation, running costs have been reduced and pump efficiency has increased by 16%.
  • Stadium overhaul is pitch perfect

Yorkshire Water awards £1.5mn pump maintenance contract to ITT Water & Wastewater

29 July 2010

ITT Water & Wastewater has secured a £1.5 million direct maintenance contract with Yorkshire Water.

The 12 month initial contract, with a potential five year extension, covers all pump maintenance including product replacement and, for the first time, pump repair and rental.

For the past 15 years Yorkshire Water has outsourced all maintenance to a third party, but has now set up the pump repair framework to deal directly with suppliers such as ITT.
 
ITT WWW’s field sales engineer,Mark Collinson, said: “This is a significant result for us and a great achievement for the team. It further establishes ITT WWW as a total solutions provider rather than just solely a pump supplier. With ITT Water & Wastewater’s total capabilities we can offer customers efficiency and cost savings combined with a reliable, high quality service.”
