The Environment and Us

Products for Helping the Environment

A.R.I is committed to minimizing the impact of its activities on the environment (See: A.R.I Environment Policy Statement below). We see our mission as not only to protect the environment from within the company but also to provide product lines that help others to reduce damaging effects to the environment. ARI products will reduce pathogen and contaminant intrusion into potable water systems, pathogen and contaminant seepage from wastewater systems into water sources (ground water, lakes, ponds etc.) and revenue and non-revenue water losses.

Using the software program analyses of ARIavCAD and Surge 2010, A.R.I surge reducing air valves can be strategically placed on water and wastewater transmissions systems to reduce the damaging effects of pressure transients which cause pipe burst, fractures and cracks and their subsequent water losses.

The A.R.I Unmeasured Flow Reducer (UFR) is used on household water lines adjacent to the water meter to detect leaks in the system and also change the flow regimen to enable measuring of water that was previously immeasurable.
