Things That Are Cold
We were driving down the highway and saw a billboard advertising a snowblower and it said, "Remember the polar vortex?" It sent shivers down our spines thinking of last winter. The truth is, unless you're a weather reporter, a teacher, or a plow operator, cold weather only causes problems -especially for those in the water industry. However, with IceBreakTM, winter doesn't have to be so scary.
Frazil Ice and the Cook Legacy IceBreakTM System
Frazil ice is a particular form of ice that causes unique problems for intake screens. It starts as very small crystals of ice suspended in the water. It can stick to objects under water such as intake screens and grow to block them. Frazil grows in flocs (porous and slushy clusters) which eventually form a sheet of ice. The IceBreakTM System uses compressed air to prevent ice build-up.
Here's how it works:
Stage 1- Flotation Plumes
Stage 2- Turbulent Curtain
If you're in an area where the water will freeze this winter, talk to your clients now about an IceBreakTM System.
You know what else is cold? British Columbia.
We're proud of how Cook Legacy is doing. Our business is booming and we owe a lot of that to our sales reps who are regularly winning jobs for us. One such rep is Farima Lari who is the sales rep. for British Columbia. Farima Lari grew up in Tehran Iran, and moved to Canada 4 years ago with her family. She has a Masters of Chemical Engineering from University of Birmingham in UK and considers business development to be a particular area of expertise. She enjoys snowboarding, yoga, kickboxing, and learning different languages.
Farima is proud of achieving all the goals that have been set for the BC territory for the last year. Especially Box Canyon, because
she was about to lose it due to the complications of the project and a new buyer, but got the job at last. She learned that consistency in following up makes everything achievable.
There’s something that Farima learned last week during her visit to Haa ak Suuk Creek. The Hydropower plants that we are helping to build are not only about producing clean energy for a specific village. These Hydropower plants help first nation families have secure jobs, help their kids go to college, give them scholarships for education and help the village and people who live there have a better life. This to Farima is the meaning of having a real job, being part of something that makes a difference.

Here's how it works:
Stage 1- Flotation Plumes
- Lots of small bubbles carry frazil up to surface
- Removes frazil while promoting ice cover
Stage 2- Turbulent Curtain
- Larger bubbles create a high-turbulence ‘kill zone’
- Forces any remaining frazil away and prevents it from sticking to intake screen
