By The Gorman-Rupp Company
Cuyahoga County is the most populous county in Ohio, with nearly 1.4 million residents. Part of Greater Cleveland, the county is named after a Native American word meaning "crooked river." With more than 63% of its total area made up of water, the county strives to foster strong neighborhoods, support safe housing, and promote economically sound communities for the 19 villages, 2 townships and 38 cities serves.
After a careful review of all available pump options, Gorman-Rupp pump stations were selected. Previous experience with the technology, the brand's reputation for quality and durability, as well as quick service were key factors in the decision. The Craun-Liebing Company, an authorized Gorman-Rupp distributor for wastewater equipment and technology was brought in to consult in the planning process.
In this well-populated county, ongoing development has brought about the need to pump longer distances with increased elevation changes. This requires pumps capable of operating at higher pressures – traditionally at a significant expense. Because the expense and complexity had previously been anticipated to outweigh rewards, further development in certain areas within the county had been delayed. However, as a result of new self-priming pump design technology recently introduced by Gorman-Rupp, development plans have moved forward.
