The Importance Of Using A Factory Authorized Service Center

The Stokes brand is a symbol of strength for industrial vacuum, and we are proud of our rich heritage of 125 years.  Edwards is the service provider that we Authorized with our stamp of approval. Becoming an Authorized service provider is an extensive process; one that is not merely about training and facilities. It is also about sharing our values around integrity, quality, and reliability. As an Authorized service provider for Stokes Factory Overhaul, we stand behind the work that Edwards performs as our own.

Why Choose a Stokes Factory Overhaul Over a Non-Authorized Facility?

Every pump is photographed and visually inspected upon arrival. We disassemble it using proper tooling to avoid damage and document internal conditions. Decontamination follows, ensuring safe waste disposal. All wear surfaces are then measured against OEM specifications, and non-compliant parts are flagged for replacement.

We provide a detailed Stokes Analysis Form with itemized pricing. Our team reviews it with you directly, ensuring you understand what’s needed and approve all work before we proceed.

Parts go through additional cleaning using advanced methods like wet blasting, sand blasting, or parts washing. All components are rinsed, dried, and then polished to restore optimal condition.

Reassembly is performed exactly to Stokes factory procedures. All standard components: seals, gaskets, O-rings, bearings, valve deck assemblies, solenoid valves, ball valves, check valves, V-belts, sight glass, oil flow indicator, expansion plugs and more, are replaced using only genuine Stokes parts.

Each pump is tested for 24 continuous hours to guarantee performance meets or exceeds factory standards. 

We repaint using environmentally safe, industrial-grade, water-based gray paint. Safety guards are painted orange, and new safety labels and markings are applied. Your pump is carefully palletized for shipment, including V-Lube Oil. Every overhaul includes a 12-month warranty on parts and workmanship from documented date of installation.
