Meet Al Ingerson from the Hydro South team.

Al joined Hydro South back in March 2008 and started out as a sandblaster. Over the years, through hard work and hands-on experience, he worked his way up to Lead Mechanic and now serves as Shop Foreman, helping train new mechanics and supporting the shop team every day.

He specializes in boiler feed water pumps and has experience both in the shop and out in the field handling removals, installations, and project supervision. One thing Al strongly believes: you’ve got to take pride in your work to be good at what you do.

Outside of work, Al stays busy with his four kids — Lily, Brody, McKinleigh, and Jameson. Most of his free time revolves around cheering them on at soccer, wrestling, gymnastics, and drama events.

At Hydro South, employees like Al represent the dedication, craftsmanship, and family values that continue to drive the team forward every day.

Reliability improvements often come from solving the small issues that create big operational headaches over time.

This Hydro South case study highlights how HydroSeal technology helped improve pump performance by reducing leakage, simplifying maintenance, and enhancing overall reliability in a demanding industrial application.

By replacing traditional packing systems with a modern seal casing solution, facilities can improve environmental performance while reducing maintenance frequency and operational downtime. It’s another example of how Hydro South continues delivering engineered solutions focused on long-term reliability and customer performance.

Take a closer look at the HydroSeal case study and see how Hydro’s engineering expertise is helping facilities operate more efficiently.
