Comparing Apples to Apples: Objective Comparison Leads to Optimal Solution
The City of Columbus, Ohio, took a proactive approach in evaluating the best mixer solution for their finished water storage facilities. Initially, the plan was to install four brand X active mixers in four tanks, with two side-by-side tanks at each of two locations. However, when an MTM associate at Dark Water Solutions offered (Ixom/Medora) mixers for consideration as an alternate supplier, the city seized the opportunity to conduct a comprehensive comparison.
-
To ensure an unbiased evaluation, the City of Columbus commissioned MTM to supply and install one mixer from each brand at both sites. This parallel testing approach allowed for a direct comparison of the mixers' performance, durability, and operational costs under identical conditions.
-
After a rigorous five-year evaluation period involving continuous use, the results were unequivocal: Ixom/Medora mixers emerged as the undisputed champion. These mixers exhibited unparalleled reliability, demonstrating zero downtime and zero maintenance requirements, in stark contrast to the unreliable performance of brand X mixers.
The combination of uncompromising reliability, minimal maintenance needs, and cost-effectiveness made Ixom/Medora mixers the clear choice for the city's water storage facilities. This decision not only ensured optimal operational efficiency but also maximized the return on investment for taxpayers.
-
The successful implementation of Ixom/Medora mixers serves as a testament to the City of Columbus's commitment to embracing innovative solutions and prioritizing quality over short-term gains. By conducting a thorough evaluation and making an informed decision, the city has set a benchmark for responsible stewardship of public resources. This case study highlights the importance of conducting comprehensive assessments and being open to exploring alternative solutions. By doing so, municipalities can identify and implement cutting-edge technologies that deliver superior performance, reliability, and cost-effectiveness, ultimately benefiting both the community and the environment.
