About Water Management, Inc.

Water Management, Inc. (WMI) is well established in the field of water efficiency and conservation and has developed a successful track record since its founding in 1980. WMI presently has offices in Alexandria, VA (Headquarters), Nashville, TN, and Southern California.

Over the past 25 years, WMI,s Water Professionals have conserved hundreds of millions
 – more... of gallons of water for our clients. WMI continually trains their personnel in leading water conservation techniques so our client can be assured of world class service in the areas of water demand management and conservation. Roughly two-thirds of our employees are involved with hands-on supervision or direct product installation.

Experience and proven results are the hallmarks of Water Management, Inc. WMI likes to measure and verify the savings on every project. As a consequence, we have learned through the years which products perform best in a specific situation producing the best combination of performance, price, and long term sustainable water savings. Maintenance and other operational costs are always considered in the analysis. The typical performance contract encompasses the following:


An audit


Water and sewer use and cost analysis


Product and system recommendations


Turnkey pricing


Implementation


Financing


Measurement and verification of savings


Essentially, WMI acts as consultant, developer/product specifier, and construction manager to provide a total package for our clients. In addition, the company has the ability to finance and maintain the equipment installed. WMI offers water savings and conservation solutions based on water modeling, experience, and expertise in the field.

WMI provides water auditing as a stand alone service. Increasingly, water utilities and facilities across the country are asking WMI to provide them with comprehensive detailed water audits. Detailed water audits are the most important first step in identifying and evaluating water conservation measures (WCM,s). The water audit cannot be done effectively from a desk chair. The detailed in-office water analysis is supported by field procedures, specialized tools and, of course, our experience.

Water meters can lose their accuracy as they age. As part of the detailed audit WMI will also review the existing meter data records (age, size, repair records, etc,) and determine the usage per building and usage per occupant per day. This information is cross referenced with expected water use from our water model to determine the potential under recording of existing water meters. If this is the case, our calculations can be verified by using portable flowmeters for water (incoming water) or wastewater (outgoing water). WMI has found that these M&V techniques work very well as a diagnostic tool for this type of application.

To accurately determine the total financial benefit associated with the water saving measures identified during the audit, it is important to understand the interrelationship of water and energy. Thus knowledge of current and projected water, wastewater, gas and electric utility rates is critical to performing a quality audit. WMI can provide a utility rate analysis as part of the initial audit which may reflect these interactions. This can be the difference between a project that is implemented and one that stays on the shelf in the office.

A water model is also an important part of the analysis. WMI collects census data of a facility including population demographics and operating times, process information and schedules, and other information on unusual variations in water usage caused by leaks or shut downs to feed into our model. Each model is tailored to the individual customer. – lessMore from ZoomInfo »
