Managing Drought And Reducing Water Loss During System Maintenance And Repair

Discover how public water systems can avoid both the cost and the terrible optics associated with repairs during drought conditions by using insertion valves. 

Pipeline Management Through Measurement

Pressure transients can be reduced through changes in pump operations and valve usage. Intelligent pipeline monitoring, combining pressure data with analytics, helps utilities prevent problems and educate operators and customers.

City Of Westminster, Colorado, And The Value Of Trustworthy Data

This case study explores how the City of Westminster in Colorado has implemented a new mobile app, Trimble Unity Mobile for Cityworks, to streamline workflows and reduce manual data entry for water utility crews.

Aquatic Invasive Species Control At Hoover Dam

In this case study, learn why Hoover Dam installed Atlantium's HOD UV treatment system to protect its cooling water systems from Quagga mussels.

Does Your State Accept Predictive Modeling For Inventory Development?

Read about how predictive modeling leverages information collected in the field to understand patterns for the rest of the system and predict the material of unknown services. 

Minimize Downtime With An Advanced Exchange From Aerzen

Customers participating in Advanced Exchange can get an equivalent overhauled unit sent to them to swap out in place of the one in need of repair.

Texas Has Confirmed Kemio Is An Approved Method For Water Quality Testing

This is great news for water quality testing. Kemio provides laboratory results, whether in the lab or in the field, allowing the operator to swiftly address water issues. With the multitude of municipalities and laboratories in Texas, this is a huge win for Water Quality Testing!

The Next Generation Of The TrojanUV3000Plus

Discover the new generation of the TrojanUv3000Plus product line.

The Importance Of pH Levels In Water Treatment

Recognizing pH's pervasive influence empowers operators to achieve consistent and reliable outcomes in every facet of water and wastewater treatment, underlining its indispensability for clean and safe water systems.

Finding A More Affordable Migration Path To Net Zero Leakage

Whether decision-makers consider it ultimately attainable or not, there is something positive to be said about striving toward ‘net zero leakage’ in water distribution systems saddled with high non-revenue-water (NRW) losses. The key is taking affordable steps toward identifying and mitigating the most egregious water loss locations in a distribution system, based on readily accessible data.
