Background:
BEST Ford in Nashua, New Hampshire, recently opened one of Ford’s next-generation Pro Elite Commercial Service Facilities, purpose-built to support commercial fleet operators.
As expectations for speed and convenience continue to grow, so do commercial fleets. These facilities play a critical role in keeping businesses moving by getting work vehicles back on the road quickly and efficiently.
Ford Pro Elite Commercial Service Facilities are designed around one primary objective: maximizing uptime for fleet customers. To achieve this goal, Ford requires these facilities to feature a minimum of 24 oversized service bays capable of accommodating everything from electric vehicles to utility trucks equipped with cranes that perform maintenance directly at customer job sites.
Site Conditions & Installation:
This project was completed as part of a new construction commercial service facility. Futura Sales worked closely with the installing contractor throughout the project, ensuring a smooth installation from start to finish.
The contractor praised the lightweight HDPE construction of the OT-2000, which simplified installation compared to traditional concrete or steel interceptors. Combined with Striem’s modular LR-24 riser system, the oil separator was easy to maneuver and install on site.
Futura Sales’ knowledgeable local support ensured questions were answered quickly, helping keep the project on schedule.
Key Takeaways:
The rapid growth of e-commerce and fleet-based delivery services has fundamentally changed the demands placed on vehicle service facilities. As commercial fleets expand, so does the need for high-performance maintenance centers and the infrastructure that supports them.
Projects like the BEST Ford Pro Elite Commercial Service Facility demonstrate how Striem is uniquely positioned to support this evolving market. Our comprehensive lineup of third-party certified oil separators provides engineers, contractors, and owners with solutions that are 100% Made in the USA, backed by a lifetime guarantee, and designed for fast, efficient installation.
One of the most valuable outcomes of projects like this is hearing directly from the installing contractor. Feedback on installation isn’t just satisfying, it becomes valuable insight that we can share with specifying engineers — reinforcing that Striem products don’t just perform after installation; they help simplify the construction process from day one.
A huge shoutout to Bill Van Norman, Mike Kelly and the Futura Sales team for sharing their feedback and helping make this project a success!
