May 10, 2018 - Orthos Liquid Systems, Inc. (ORTHOS), the leading manufacturer of nozzle-based filtration systems in water/wastewater treatment, will recognize well-operated and -maintained facilities from its extensive installation base through a new "Facility of the Year" Award Program.
Empathetic that water and wastewater operators and their facilities do not often receive proper credit for their critical connection to public health, ORTHOS will ceremoniously honor the award winners at their respective utility, commission, council, or board meetings. Local media will also be invited.
ORTHOS will interview candidate facility personnel and request documentation to validate operational and maintenance procedures and obtain recent treatment results. A handsome plaque with the name of the facility and responsible person(s) will be crafted for presentation during the ceremony. Space will be left on the plaque for recognition of multi-year winners.
"There are a host of potential winners as ORTHOS has never had a filter underdrain failure in its history," states Stuart F. Humphries, ORTHOS Director of Filtration Technologies. "Our installations are all worthy of distinction -- it will be a difficult decision." Potential future winners may include:
"I encourage all ORTHOS installations to participate in this award program to be recognized for their worthy efforts," declared Humphries.
LIFE CYCLE COST WINNER, EVERY TIME
Remember Orthos' HUGE life cycle cost benefits - At the end of the filter's life cycle (~25 years), in contrast to a complete plastic block or folded sheet metal underdrain overhaul, nozzles are simply replaced
potentially saving $Millions.
"No need to replace the chandelier when all you must do is change out the light bulbs!"
