Amway, a global leader in health and beauty products, required an upgrade to their main water softening system at their XS liquids building. The existing system was a critical component in their production line, serving as a pre-treatment stage for the reverse osmosis system that is integral to the production of their popular energy drinks. Amway needed a solution that would allow them to replace the system without disrupting their tight production schedules.
Besco Solution
The result was a flawless installation that did not interfere with Amway’s energy drink production. Besco Water Treatment’s commitment to listening and responding to our customer’s needs was evident in the successful execution of this project. Amway was able to continue their operations uninterrupted, thanks to the new water softening system that now reliably serves as a pre-treatment for their critical reverse osmosis system.

The next challenge was getting the commercial system fitted into a residence. Our crew worked with Dylan with clear communication to get the right setup available to get it installed properly. In order to make sure they had clean water as soon as possible, we provided adapters to have the system in place while the setup was being worked on.
Dylan wrote to us afterward and said, “Your service manager Will and service techs Damon and John are top-notch! All skilled tradesmen and their work reflects that. Those guys put in some long hours and did so happily and respectfully. It’s not easy working in residential (picky homeowners are the worst)… Haha… And your guys did a phenomenal job. Very happy with the install. Looks great! We truly appreciate all the hard work from the techs; working up front with Gerrit was a breeze, and everyone was a wealth of knowledge. Delivery and install were on time as promised.”

Google’s $1.2 billion data center complex in Lenoir, North Carolina, and a $2.4 billion center in Berkley County, South Carolina, are two branches of a large network of data centers all over the world. They are full of row after row of machines, all working together to make Google function — and giving off massive amounts of heat.
Google’s server rooms must be kept at exacting humidity levels. Too much moisture in the air can damage computer equipment, but a lack of humidity can also cause problems, such as static electricity buildup and electrostatic damage. Data centers typically run constant water misters to keep the humidity level at just the right amount.
Google uses more than 4 billion gallons of water per year. Some of it is used in offices, but most is consumed by its data centers, where Besco Commercial’s high-purity water is sprayed into the air through ultrasonic humidifiers.
Besco Solution
In data centers, water must be purified before it is misted into the air. Any mineral buildup in the humidifier would affect the desired application of fine-mist fog, and could create maintenance issues. Any impurities in the misted water could lead to buildup or deposits on the computer equipment, potentially causing corrosion or damage.
When ultrapure water is necessary for effective humidity control in an IT environment, Besco can custom tailor a solution. Besco Commercial is proud to play a part in protecting Google’s high-performance computers.

An environmental extraction company was scheduled to have the old materials removed and taken away enabling Besco’s team to have the existing system removed and off-site within two hours. The technicians then went to work installing the new system. It was all accomplished by 3:30PM…fully functioning and operational. The coordination and installation of a system this size typically requires a minimum of two days to complete, we did it in one. Besco Commercial Water Treatment can keep a timeline and, because of the volume of systems that we’ve engineered, we know how to do it efficiently and with limited downtime for our customers.

So, during the slower times when the demand for water is low, only one softening unit is online. As business escalates and the demand for water increases, the Besco-designed control system activates additional softening tanks to satisfy the current demand for water. This ensures that Soapy Joe’s maintains consistent water quality throughout the day and maximizes the efficiency of the system, saving salt and water, by eliminating unnecessary regenerations.
In addition, the design of the system provides for future growth which is very important to this client. The system can be customized to meet increasing water demands. Please view our photos of the installation below.

Besco Commercial Water Treatment demolished the existing system and installed the new system closer to the wall to improve space requirements for the facility. Besco then moved the salt storage tanks into an adjacent room and hard-plumbed the brine line to the water system. This move saved Northpointe Woods enough space that they were able to easily access the gated area without any obstructions.

Besco Commercial Water Treatment installed a 42” diameter carbon backwash system with a 2” control valve. The valve will capture pertinent information such as average gpm, total water usage, average flow rate, and the number of backwashes since start up. All of this information is instrumental in the diagnostic process of Arcadia Brewing Company.
Two weeks after the install Besco followed up on the new system to be certain that it was producing as promised. It was. The system is working as specified and Arcadia has brewed many batches utilizing Besco Commercial Water Treatment’s designed system.

To solve Gerber Baby Products needs, Besco designed and built a stainless steel system with high temperature solenoid values, face-piping and a PLC controller that can be monitored and controlled from the customer’s BMS system. Since this system required extensive programming, Besco outsourced a programmer from Texas to write custom code for this application to ensure that all functions interface with the current operating system at Gerber.
In addition, when dealing with high temperatures such as were required here, many safeguards were built into the system to prevent injury in case of a failure. These safeguards were designed and customized by Besco Commercial in a redundant fashion so that in the event of a steam leak, the system would automatically shut itself down.
