Most clients see an immediate water utility savings up to 30%. The results vary by water pressure from the city water supply and size of the installed WAVE Water Valve.

No. The Wave Water Valve and the FloLytix Water Monitor are installed on the property side of the meter.

The Wave Valve is typically installed in under an hour per valve, and many times in only 30 minutes. Installation can be scheduled during hours that don’t interrupt your schedule or business. The FloLytix Monitor can in most cases be installed in under 30 minutes. Deeper vaults will require more time since they will require additional certifications and safety equipment.

FluidLytix technology, including the patented Wave Water Efficiency Valve and the FloLytix Water Monitor, are manufactured in the USA.

There are many ways air gets into the water supply as it travels through the pipes from your water supplier. Although water providers try to prevent outside air infusion, air is drawn into the water line in many ways such as during common main line breakages, pumps along the water line, small cracks or damaged joint seals and changes in temperature. Most water meters measure volume passing through the meter so you are billed for the volume of water plus the air. The WAVE Water Efficiency Valve compresses the air in the pipe as it goes through the meter so you are billed only for water, not water plus air bubbles. This results in up to 30% reduction in water costs.

The water coming from the city is often over-pressurized, causing you to use more water than necessary. Lower water pressure is desirable and typically not enough that guests or customers notice. In most instances the desired pressure drop is between 6 to 8 psi, and the pressure can be adjusted to suit customers’ requirements.

You will know The Wave Valve is working based on the immediate reduction in your volume usage, and a lower water bill.
