HARLEYSVILLE, PA -- Raymond J. De Hont, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Met-Pro Corporation, announced today that the Company's Duall Division, in Owosso, Michigan has received an order valued in excess of $ 1.2 million to supply six (6) aeration systems, complete with Duall scrubbers and fans, to a municipal water treatment facility in the Southeast United States. Two systems are expected to ship in the third quarter of the fiscal year ending January 31, 2007. The balance of the order is expected to ship in the fourth quarter of the fiscal year ending January 31, 2007.

The aeration systems are designed to remove hydrogen sulfide (H2S) and carbon dioxide (CO2) dissolved gases from contaminated groundwater as part of the process designed to make the groundwater suitable for public use. Each aerator is designed to treat 5 million gallons per day. All equipment will be constructed of Duall's unique NSF approved DUALLast(TM) fiberglass reinforced plastic with thermoplastic inner liner and will be fabricated in Duall's Owosso, Michigan manufacturing facility.

"This order demonstrates Duall's strong presence in the groundwater remediation market and reinforces Duall's reputation as a leader in this field," said De Hont. "As announced earlier this week, Met-Pro just completed a fiscal year in which we had record sales and bookings, as well as the highest backlog entering a new fiscal year. This order, together with our strong backlog and steady level of customer interest and quotation activity, allows us to remain optimistic about our prospects for the current fiscal year."
