2018 - Gone in a Flash!
It might be a factor of age, but it seems as though the years go by faster and faster. Heck, we’re almost done with January and we're still trying to finish up some things from December. 2018 was a great year for Hydra-Tech Pumps and we owe it all to our loyal customers, reliable vendors, and hardworking employees. We are looking forward to 2019 and continuing to work with customers that have been with us for a long time as well as new customers we develop.

Looking back – 2018 was Hydra-Tech Pump’s best year ever. We exhibited at the WWETT Show in February and had the chance to talk to a number of existing customers and prospects. We survived the great pre-Tier 4 Final engine crush of 2018 and with respect to engine brands, have a wider variety of T4F units to offer in the 74 horsepower range than ever before. We were able to get our NEW S30M axial pump tested with our HT400DJV power unit and it performed even better than expected. Anyone out there need to pump 25,000 gallons per minute?

Looking ahead. We will once again be exhibiting at the WWETT Show. The show is held at the Indianapolis convention center from February 21-23 – we will be in Booth # 4344. In the spring we will break ground on an 8000 square foot addition to our existing facility. For anyone who has not had the chance to visit us in our little corner of the world, Hydra-Tech Pumps manufactures out of a converted catering facility / restaurant. Although we have lots of room the ceilings are low and the building itself obviously wasn’t designed with manufacturing in mind, although we have made it work well for the 11 years we have been in Nesquehoning. The addition will be wide open clean manufacturing space and will house shipping and receiving, steel storage and frame prep, our new in ground test tank, and lots of storage space. It will allow for continued improvement in product flow as well as the hiring of additional manufacturing personnel.

So once again we want to thank you, our customers, for your part in Hydra-Tech’s continued success and for pushing us to continue to improve and grow. Cheers to a bang up 2019!
Pump of the month:
S4THL

Hydra-Tech’s versatile S4THL, four inch hydraulic drive vortex impeller trash pump offers three inch solids handling and head capabilities up to 210 feet. This durable sludge pump is primarily used for oil refinery wastes, sewage digester clean-out, waste water and sludge pumping and desilting applications using divers. It can be bolted directly into a pipeline or fitted with a suction hose for underwater dredging. Combined with our HT50 to HT75 power units, the S4THL is capable of flows up to 1000 GPM. This safe and variable speed hydraulic drive submersible pump can be used where electric power is hazardous or impractical. 

Come and visit Hydra-Tech Pumps at the WWETT Show!
What the heck is the WWETT Show? WWETT stands for Water & Wastewater Equipment, Treatment & Transport. The show was original called the Pumper Show until about 5 years ago when they made the name change. Originally the Pumper Show was primarily focused towards septic tank pumping professionals but the show has evolved through the years to include so many more applications and professions that it was renamed. 
From the show website:
“The WWETT Show - Water & Wastewater Equipment, Treatment & Transport Show - is the world's largest annual trade show for wastewater and environmental service professionals. The event offers an unmatched educational program, a full slate of live demos, an array of networking opportunities, and an extensive expo floor where buyers and sellers come together to see and experience the latest product innovations and technology.”
