& Processes
Visibility into wasteful practices, plumbing malfunctions, and the health of equipment using water can lead to big savings in water, time, and money.
Picture perfect visibility.
Water is required to supply a property and facilitate plant operations. Processes that consume water can be complex and often hidden from view in mechanical rooms or mezzanines. Water use was considered uncontrollable, a cost of doing business.
Intelligent water management.
Introducing real-time water measurement and analytics into your operations will deliver the ability to see water waste, identify equipment failures, and reduce operating and maintenance costs anywhere at any time.
Your Facility: High resolution water meters, placed strategically within your facility, monitor water use in real-time. Minute by minute water data is sent over our secure Internet of Things (IoT) network to a cloud-based analytics engine.
The Cloud: Incoming water data is analyzed continuously to identify water waste events, equipment failures, and anomalous use. Once an issue is identified, an alert is sent with simple, action oriented guidance to discover the source.
Your Staff: Powerful visual analytics help you identify and diagnose wasteful use patterns — whether a single process in one facility, or a comparison across the full building portfolio. Executives get the visibility they want and you get to satisfy efficiency requirements.
50,000-gallon daily waste event averted.
This real-time water use graph highlights a plumbing failure. Apana’s Water Efficiency as a Service sent an alert to the facility with step-by-step instructions to inspect all toilets and sinks in the restrooms.
A frontline employee used the guidance to identify a toilet leak in a restroom at the back of the facility. The water supply was shut off while they waited for a plumber to arrive and make the repairs.
It was a toilet in the back ladies’ bathroom. We shut the water off. The plumber will be here in the morning.
