  2. The Smart Water Show: Episode 3 – What is a NaaS? 2/26/2021

    Why have only 20% of water utilities deployed an AMI fixed network?  If you are considering a fixed network, I've got something you seriously need to consider prior to soliciting quotations or putting out your RFP. The question is, who is going to manage the network infrastructure? Do you have qualified individuals within your utility ready to continuously monitor, maintain and manage the network? In this video, we're going to discuss some of the options available for water utilities today: a utility managed network versus a network as a service agreement (NaaS).

  4. 6 Ways To Improve Payment Performance 3/20/2017

    With rising regulatory and infrastructure costs, it’s more important than ever for water and wastewater utilities to collect what they’re owed from ratepayers. But how can they go about improving collection?

  5. How To Read An Encoder 9/13/2013

    The HR-E LCD encoder has a 9-digit Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) to show consumption, flow and alarm information. The display automatically toggles between 9-digit and 6-digit consumption, rate of flow and meter model.

  6. Pikeville, Kentucky Medical Center Leak Found Despite Ambient Noise 6/23/2021

    Leaks found in 60 psi high density PE pipe by FELL in less than three hours. Acoustic and CCTV failed to find any leaks after more than a year of investigation. Read the full case study to learn more. 

  7. Demystifying Data as a Service (DaaS) 2/12/2025

    Like other “as a service” offerings, the idea of data as a service (DaaS) is to take the burden of ownership off the customer. But for many water industry professionals, it can be confusing how that works and where the value lies. To get a better understanding, it helps to break down exactly what this service tends to entail and what problems it aims to solve.

  9. Standards For Testing And Certifying Cured-In-Place Pipe 6/23/2021

    It is estimated that nearly 75,000 miles of wastewater and water pipelines have been lined with Cured-In-Place Pipe (CIPP), with nearly $3 billion spent annually on the trenchless renovation method, worldwide. Recognizing the growing use of CIPP and inability of CCTV inspection to accurately or consistently certify trenchless rehabilitation as defect-free, this paper chronicles the emergence of new guidelines to test, certify, and accept CIPP lining projects, using Focused Electrode Leak Location (FELL) inspection.
