King Sooper’s Marketplace – Commercial Development Lift Station
Project Description
The food & drug store serving a nearby university needed this replacement package wastewater lift station for medium flow rates. Submersible solids handling pumps are designed to operate with suspended grease in the water from a cafeteria in the market. The lift station valves are vertically integrated into the sump discharge piping. An indoor UL listed control panel contains an intrinsically safe barrier for the in-well electrical controls, and an autodialer and basic alarm fulfill communication requirements. Floats are the primary and backup level-sensing control devices.

Why They Chose Romtec Utilities
The civil engineering firm, Ayres Associates, contacted Romtec Utilities to provide designs and budgetary pricing for a wastewater lift station to be installed at a new food & drug store. The preliminary design and pricing was reviewed by the private contractor, Connell Resources, and Ayers Associates. The only revision requested was that the price be lower. Romtec Utilities asked for a proposed budget for the design and was directed to make a few amendments to the design criteria. The proposed changes and requested price was quickly met by Romtec Utilities. The lift station was approved by the City of Fort Collins shortly after. Getting the price lower and the designs finalized quickly allowed this commercial development to proceed.
