Smart Water

The Smart Water eHandbook showcases how utilities of all sizes can modernize operations using existing infrastructure and making investments in technology. From small towns like Walla Walla, Washington, to suburban districts like Raytown, Missouri, utilities are proving that modernization doesn’t require starting from scratch. The third feature examines the aging fire hydrant dilemma—revealing that replacement, especially with smart-enabled hydrants, can deliver significant safety and financial returns. These stories underscore a shared theme: utilities can achieve digital transformation at scale through targeted upgrades, grant funding, and strong vendor relationships. Whether it's improving leak detection, reducing maintenance burdens, or increasing operational visibility, smart water strategies are enabling utilities to do more with less.
