We provide accurate and reliable pumps in demanding environments with short lead times. After the acquisition of the Hydroflo line of metering pumps in 2007 Precision Flow Technologies Inc. decided to re-launch the line under the AquFlow brand while preserving the original design and manufacturing processes. Even with a new name and a new look customers expect and get the same legendary dependabil
ity, durability and ruggedness of the Hydroflo chemical metering pumps. AquFlow has its roots with a company called Hydroflo Corporation. Klembeth, a former design engineer for BIF and Milton Roy Company. Klembeths purpose for Hydroflo Corp. was to fill a need in the growing irrigation, fertigation, chemical, water and waste water treatment markets. Hydroflo quickly became known as a can do company because of its ability to deliver quality products promptly. This was achieved by engineering, manufacturing, assembly testing and packaging of both pumps and systems under one roof aided by Klemco Engineering Inc. also founded by Mr. Klembeth. The product line initially included simplex and duplex plunger pumps featuring self adjusting packing. The line was expanded to include the Chem-Injector D line of metering pumps with capacities up to 2500 GPH and pressures to 3000 PSI along with a full line of accessories including back pressure valves, safety relief valves, calibration columns, pulsation dampeners, electronic capacity controllers and variable speed drives. By 1983 Hydroflo/Klemco had outgrown its Dublin, PA location and moved to a new 30,000 square foot facility located in Plumsteadville, PA. This became the manufacturing headquarters for the next 23 years. In 1996 John Klembeth sold the Hydroflo line to Penn Process Technologies which was run by Steve Fierce until 2000 when it went bankrupt (receivership). Nikkiso Pumps purchased the company out of bankruptcy from the bank in early 2001 and made Hydroflo a part of Nikkiso Pumps America. Nikkiso had its own line of comparable pumps and were obviously more interested in promoting those using the established sales channels of Hydroflo. In 2006 Nikkiso Pumps America decided to sell the Hydroflo line of products. Precision Flow Technologies Inc., recognizing the history of performance and impeccable reputation of this pump line was more than happy to get it. We re-launched this legendary line as Aquflow in March 2007 with a commitment and zeal not only to reclaim the old glory but to invest all the resources to make this the leading brand among chemical metering pumps. We dedicated all our resources in the beginning months to get the operations organized to achieve peak performance to meet and exceed customers expectations. When these customers started to see that we ship service parts the same day and standard pumps in 3-5 days, they acknowledged that AquFlow has added the much needed support dimension to the legacy of dependable and durable design of the pumps. The market place is also learning that AquFlow (the revitalized Hydroflo) is back and here to stay this time. With increased confidence the customers are coming back to embrace their pump of choice.
