Flowplan is offering an IoT solution for remote water management, specifically for water consuming HoReCa machinery, e.g. coffee machines, dishwashers and ice machines.
The solution consists of both hardware and software and together offers the most advanced IoT solution available on the market.
More or less all these machines are equipped with a water filter that filter out calcium and magnesium, to avoid scale buildup. They have to be changed dependent on water hardness and filter type. Currently service companies change them based on rough estimates or even guesses - leading to huge filter waste, unnecessary driving and often scale buildup in the expensive machines.
By monitoring all consumption, transmitting it wirelessly and analyzing data, we predict exactly when the filters are due, and let the service companies know. This way we ensure all filters are changed on time, not too soon or too late. Besides optimizing water filters, we are using machine earning and AI to analyze consumption data and gain valuable insights for the users to act upon.
Our mission is to change the water filter market. Reduce the enormous filter (and money) waste, and ensure no machines break down due to scale buildup.
We are a young team with experience from the industry, where the problem has been a long-standing problem.
