They weren’t the standard thing, but they are things I see as being the future of the industry, like our pump house being internet connected, so the pump engineers don’t have to come on site, they can interrogate the control panel remotely. Grundfos can look at the operation of the pumps and, for


example, see how much current they’re drawing.”


“That hasn't been the norm in our industry, but if you look at other industries that use big pumps, like a water company, they would have some of those systems in place. We’re embracing new technology in the specifications. I think there’s a slight tendency in all industries for people to take the ‘off the peg’ specification because it’s the most economical, but it isn’t that difficult


to tweak specifications to suit the locality, the client situation and what their long-term aims are.”


“For us, it came down to who was in a position to do what we needed, and it became apparent that our best partner with irrigation was Rain Bird.”
