About

HydraForce Lift Station Agitators are air-driven mixing systems designed to manage fats, oils, and greases within wastewater lift stations. A mounted compressor forces air through weighted tubing to suspended single-loop diffusers, producing a continuous stream of bubbles that mixes large volumes of wastewater and breaks apart accumulated F.O.G. layers.

Continuous mixing keeps solids and F.O.G. suspended, helping prevent blockage caps, corrosive buildup, foul odors, and restricted flow within the wet well. This allows the lift station to continue moving wastewater toward the treatment plant while reducing pumping, maintenance, equipment downtime, and wear on pumps and related components.

Applications

  • Municipal wastewater lift stations
  • Commercial wastewater lift stations
  • Restaurant waste streams
  • Food processing facilities
  • Breweries
  • Facilities with recurring F.O.G. accumulation
  • Wastewater collection systems affected by solids buildup

Available Models

  • 1/4HP, single phase compressors
  • 1 or 2, single-loop diffusers
  • 120V and 208-240V options

Warranty

  • 2-year warranty
Features

HydraForce by Kasco - Randy Worthen Keller, Texas Testimonial

Randy Worthen, Water Operation Supervisor for the city of Keller, Texas, shares how adding Kasco's HydraForce Lift Station Agitator was a 99% improvement in keeping their lift station clear of blockages.

How it Works

These mixing systems include a mounted compressor that forces air through tubing lines to a suspended single-loop diffuser. This diffuser continuously releases air bubbles that rise to the surface, mixing large volumes of water to solve common wastewater issues.

Testimonials for HydraForce™ Lift Station Agitator

"HydraForce instantly helped rid the F.O.G. in our lift station. Thanks Kasco!! HIGHLY recommend. Saved me thousands."

Mark | Houston, TX

"Before HydraForce, about once every two months we would have to break up the F.O.G. (fats, oils, and greases) in our lift station. Since adding HydraForce, there's nothing that needs to be broken up, and it works fantastically."

Matt | Prescott, WI

"We were having to evac and clean our two large lift stations every two weeks, costing us thousands of dollars each month. After installing HydraForce, we havent had to do that in almost a year. I would say with no exaggeration, it's a 99% improvement."

Randy | Keller, TX

FAQs

Can HydraForce reduce odor issues in lift stations setups?
Yes, continuous mixing reduces stagnant zones where odor-causing gases develop. By improving circulation and limiting buildup, the system helps minimize odors and creates a cleaner lift station environment.
Why is F.O.G. buildup such a problem in lift stations?
F.O.G. (fats, oils, greases) accumulates from everyday wastewater sources and forms thick layers that clog pumps and coat equipment. This leads to odor issues, reduced flow, frequent maintenance, and increased wear on system components.
How does HydraForce prevent grease buildup in stations?
HydraForce uses continuous air-driven mixing to break up fats, oils, and grease before they form thick layers. This prevents blockages, reduces buildup on equipment, and keeps the wet well cleaner over time.
What problems do lift station agitators help solve most?
Lift station agitators address common issues like F.O.G. (fats, oils, greases) buildup, pump clogging, odor, and solids settling. By keeping wastewater mixed, they help maintain flow, reduce maintenance needs, and improve overall system performance.
How does HydraForce keep solids suspended inside stations?
HydraForce releases a continuous stream of air bubbles through a diffuser, creating upward movement. This mixing action keeps solids and grease suspended, preventing them from settling and forming blockages.
