Recent Renovations

Rice University Pump Room

In early 2024, Progressive conducted a renovation of Rice University's Aquatic Center's pump room. The most significant upgrade included the replacement of eight outdated sand filters with two Neptune Benson fully automated Defender Regenerative media filters for both the competition and leisure pools. In addition, new PVC pipes, valves, and fittings were modified and integrated to accommodate the upgraded filters, cutting-edge variable frequency drives and flow meters were installed, and the Progressive team connected the updated piping to existing heaters and chemical systems.
