Technologies for the New Millennium
Wellspring achieves competitive advantage from its strategic foundation, which is based on developing valuable technologies not offered by others. One of these technologies is Aquraª, a patented, radio-transmitting, point-of-use water submetering system. Aqura provides the only practical means of submetering water and sewer utility costs in multi-story apartment buildings, which represent over half of North America's 32 million multi-family units.
Submetering allows building owners to charge residents for their water, sewer, and related energy consumption. Metering encourages conservation simply because residents pay for only what they consume. Experience with electric submetering has proven that consumption drops by 20% to 30% when users pay their own electric bills.
Demand is growing for a water submetering technology that works in multi-story buildings. In fact, during the last four years the demand for submeters has doubled each year. Aqura is accelerating this trend by enabling all apartment buildings to submeter.
Wellspring also holds exclusive distribution rights to Turbo-siphon, a leak-proof, fixed-flow flushing system for toilets. The Turbo-siphon prevents users from increasing the flow of a 1.6 gallon toilet and absolutely eliminates any possibility of flush valve leaks. Industry estimates suggest that 20% of all toilets in America leak 20,000 gallons per year. Turbo-siphon will help to drastically reduce toilet leaks that cost American building owners over $6 billion annually in water and sewer charges.
Along with the Aqura submetering system and the Turbo-siphon, Wellspring employs hot water loop controllers, laundry ozone systems, water treatment systems for cooling towers, mineral removal, irrigation controls and process water system enhancements not offered by competitors. These unique water system efficiency solutions set Wellspring apart and combine to create an extremely powerful competitive position.
