Ford Hall Company, Inc. has been a pioneer in wastewater management solutions since its establishment in 1989. The company specializes in designing and manufacturing the Weir-Wolf™, the original automated cleaning system tailored for wastewater clarifiers and thickeners. With a commitment to innovation, the Weir-Wolf™ system was first introduced after extensive research and development, culminating in its installation at Lexington’s West Hickman Wastewater Treatment Plant.
The Weir-Wolf™ utilizes a unique spring-loaded design with over 50 points of flexibility, enabling it to efficiently remove algae and debris from various components of wastewater facilities, including weirs, baffles, effluent spillways, and launders. Constructed entirely from stainless steel, this system is not only durable but also lightweight, weighing less than 150 pounds, and operates using pre-existing motion, which minimizes any torque increase during its use.
Ford Hall custom designs each Weir-Wolf™ unit to ensure compatibility with diverse configurations of clarifiers and thickeners, including circular, multi-sided, domed, covered, or open structures. The robust system is designed to enhance operational efficiency, saving man-hours and addressing safety concerns, all while maintaining stable suspended solids reports.
The Weir-Wolf™ benefits various applications in wastewater treatment, including primary, intermediate, and secondary clarifiers, as well as holding tanks and chlorine contact chambers. It aids in biological nutrient removal (BNR) processes and improves the performance of ultraviolet (UV) and chlorination disinfection systems. Furthermore, the product comes with a five-year parts warranty and offers a turnkey installation option with a one-year labor warranty, emphasizing the company's commitment to customer support and satisfaction.
In summary, Ford Hall Company, Inc. stands out in the wastewater treatment industry with its innovative, reliable, and efficient solutions that contribute to the overall performance of water treatment facilities.
