North American Water Loss

Lose Less Water, Capture More Revenue
Held every other year, North American Water Loss (NAWL) addresses the challenge of lost drinking water and revenue at water utilities. NAWL presents best practices for water audits, and cost-efficient approaches to controlling losses.
Three reasons why you will not want to miss NAWL:
- Address issues. Water utilities must get more creative and effective about how they address water losses to help manage costs, preserve infrastructure health, and increase efficiency.
- Reduce revenue loss. Water loss often leads to lost revenue. Learn how to ensure that your utility is compensated for every gallon that you are already paying to treat and distribute.
- Discover new solutions. New technologies and strategies keep emerging to detect and fix leaks, assess pipeline conditions, and enhance the efficiency of water systems and water use.
