Mike-O-Pedia Resources

We don’t just brag about our extensive water treatment knowledge we are putting the words to this virtual paper.  The purpose of the “Mike-O-Pedia” is to share knowledge with our peers.  We will be posting on a regular basis and look forward to answering questions or discussing comments and applications with our dealer customer base.

We will collect and frequently update the Mike-o-Pedia. (Mike’s a little self-centered, you may find tidbits from others too but, of course, we run it through Mike.)  This information is listed in the FAQ’s.

Be sure to check out our podcast- It’s Your Water, for more information and conversations about water treatment subjects.
