How It Works
New Way To Interpret Sound of Water
Every time you do the dishes, flush the toilet, or use any water, the water rushes through the plumbing system to that location and creates a unique sound signature. You can hear it. H2know does too.
H2know takes measurements from your pipe every second and uses our patented technology and machine learning approach to translate those signals to accurate water flow estimates, leak alerts, and water insights.
This information is displayed on your H2know app so it is easy-to-read and to take action. View reports, find leaks, and discover ways to conserve water and save money!
About Us
Conservation Labs is an Amazon Alexa Fund portfolio company. We founded Conservation Labs to help you save money and better manage our natural resources.
This is our big challenge: there are over 3 trillion gallons of unwanted water use each year in the U.S. alone, costing us $70 billion.
With water, a little knowledge goes a long way. H2know helps you save money and improve our water use.
