Cutting-edge Water Monitoring
Droople’s Water Intelligence Platform enables the full monitoring of every water asset, no matter where it is in the supply chain – from tap water consumption tracking to the monitoring of filter fleets. The ability to know exactly when each filter must be exchanged and replaced minimizes downtime and prevents water damages. Sometimes, it almost feels like having a personal assistant dedicated to water usage… ensuring nothing is left unnoticed, with every point of use being carefully monitored.
Innovative Integration and Applications
Droople’s solution is as flexible as it is powerful. It not only monitors water assets but also integrates seamlessly into existing operational frameworks. For instance, its API allows for building customized dashboards that can be directly embedded into a building management system (BMS), providing live insights. This connectivity extends beyond traditional water management applications; the technology even supports partnerships like the one with Gjosa. In one notable case, the Gjosa showerhead demonstrated a remarkable 60% water savings while simultaneously enhancing customer experience. It’s innovations like these that bring out the best in both technology and sustainability.
Enhanced Predictive Maintenance
Efficient water management goes beyond monitoring. Droople’s predictive maintenance capability is a game changer, giving companies the power to preemptively address issues before they evolve into serious problems. The system continuously evaluates the health of water assets – including cooling towers, filters, and sanitary installations – ensuring that preventive measures are taken promptly. While the technical sophistication is impressive, the simplicity of its application makes it accessible and highly effective in reducing disruptions and saving costs. This proactive approach in maintenance means that building managers need not worry about unexpected malfunctions or wasteful resource consumption.
