Empowering the Water Industry with Automation & Sustainability

ICE brings a rare combination of expertise in Automation, Controls, and Sustainability to boost the energy efficiency, resiliency, and quality of your water processing operations. Seamless, silent, secure—ICE is your partner for smarter, greener water solutions.

What We Do -

We empower water plant managers by integrating advanced automation that provide precise control over key operational parameters, enabling lower operating costs, and improved reliability.  Our custom software and control architecture gives the operator the ability to manage setpoints and alarms for pumps, filters, mixers, and valves. This results in enhanced energy efficiency, reduced energy costs, and a more reliable and sustainable water processing plant.  With our solutions, we help modernize plants to deliver smarter, greener, and more resilient performance.


How We Work -

We start with a comprehensive assessment of your existing operation to understand your plant’s unique needs. From there, we design a customized plan to integrate a Programmable Logic Controller (PLC)—the brain of your operation—and a Human Machine Interface (HMI)—the control interface—into your system, giving you complete control and visibility.  With years of experience in the automation industry, we ensure you get the maximum functionality from your Variable Frequency Drives (VFDs) (utilizing Ethernet/IP protocols) and any other ancillary processing equipment in your plant. Our expertise helps transform your water processing facility into a more efficient, reliable, and cost-effective operation.


Capabilities -

ICE boasts extensive experience in the automation industry, delivering custom control designs tailored to diverse industries. We bring a fresh perspective by integrating automation and renewable energy solutions, particularly in the water sector. As a vertically integrated company, we manage every aspect of a project—from conception to completion and ongoing support—ensuring seamless, silent, and secure solutions.  Our track record includes successful projects for esteemed organizations such as Caterpillar, Inc., AstraZeneca Pharmaceuticals, Vuteq Corporation, and Indiana American Water. We hold certifications from Avetta, ISNetworld, and the Consortium of Construction Safety, underscoring our commitment to excellence and safety.  In partnership with Morton Solar, LLC, we have designed over 1,500 solar energy systems for residential and commercial clients, highlighting our leadership in renewable energy solutions.


Why Choose Us -

Our diverse expertise in automation, renewable energy, and electrical contracting empowers your water processing facility to operate efficiently within budgets.  By integrating cutting-edge solutions, we not only help save your community money but also enhance the overall quality and reliability of your water supply. With us, your plant becomes a smarter, greener, and more cost-effective operation.
