or Calgary’s Chinook Pumps, the 35th Anniversary is not only the milestone of an exceptional reputation of service excellence, but also a testimonial to the importance of innovation and change. Mostly because technology changes. The products – well systems, septic systems, heat watering pumps, de-watering and circulation pumps and controls – change. The wants and needs of customers change. And for the expert and up-to-date Chinook Pumps specialists, skills and service expertise changes. The 35 years of experience and earning a solid and respected Calgary reputation are invaluable. And it is a contemporary business basic that technology is a game changer.
“Digitization is being adopted throughout the world, and the pump industry is no exception,” says the plugged-in Tom Hill, founder and owner of Calgary’s Chinook Pumps. “New technology is designed to be super user-friendly, while providing more advanced and customizable settings.” Crucial things like service logs, schematics and installation documents can be uploaded with ease and accessed within a web-interface, to not only monitor but also get real time alerts from the pump station. Technology has added features such as integration with the local weather report to log and forecast precipitation, or even the ability to simply tap the phone on a VFD to upload data or add additional input information into the system.
