The additional 15,000-square-foot expansion to Emecole Metro’s facility headquarters will allow for additional manufacturing and storage, enhancing their long-term effort at servicing customers.
After years of accessibility challenges, the installation of new semi-instantaneous water heaters provided a needed equipment and design upgrade. With the ease of serviceability brought on by the new design, the hospital asked if we could do the same with their hot water distribution equipment, resulting in a “three-phase” hot water system upgrade.
With Homewood, Illinois changing their Lake Michigan water supplier, a new pump station was needed to accommodate the added travel. The result was the largest prefabricated housed system we’ve ever built, completed at our facility and transported to the jobsite. The “upper-level” house connected seamlessly with the below-grade pipe gallery, also Metropolitan-built, to enable an easy startup.
When the town of Schaghticoke, New York was ready to upgrade control communications of their triplex booster system, Emmons Metro was brought in to integrate the MetroCloud SCADA platform. As the Northeast extension of Metropolitan Industries, Emmons Metro is equipped to provide and support cloud-connected control upgrades to water and wastewater systems throughout the region.
Our production facility is bustling with new and ongoing projects that involve fabrication, assembling, programming, and testing. With these in-house capabilities, such custom designs and assembling often make for “just another day” at Metropolitan.
Managing the water infrastructure within a high rise building or campus community can be challenging enough during normal times. In the pandemic’s early days, unpresented changes to building occupancy and water use posed many unexpected consequences. The lessons learned since can help avoid a repeat of such consequences the next time a major disruption takes place.
Upgrading a city’s or town’s water-based system controls to the cloud may seem like a huge endeavor. Metropolitan helps ease the transition, as was the case for the Lake in the Hills Sanitary District. A single upgrade to our cloud-ready lift station controller provided the opportunity to experience the full benefits of cloud SCADA before committing to subsequent upgrades over the next year.
Metropolitan Industries’ Tim Merkel recently appeared on the “Empowering Industry Podcast.” In the 30 minute discussion, Tim summarized Metropolitan’s emphasis on custom-based solutions, our involvement with cloud SCADA, and our national expansion endeavors.
