Last week, we sat down with Advanced Valve Technologies (AVT) President Harry Gray and Vice President of Global Sales Shawn Petty to learn more about their company, the benefits of insertion valve technology and how their unique approach can save customers time, money, and water.
Shawn Petty, AVT Vice President of Global Sales, said: “Our insertion valve can be installed live under pressure, without any interruption of flow in the distribution system, no water loss, and most importantly no interruption of flow to the customers.”
“We take a proven technology and make it safer, cleaner, and more efficient.”
The talk also explored practical applications of insertion valves, real-life success stories and some of the broader environmental and social benefits that AVT bring to their customers, and to the regions they operate.
Harry Gray, AVT President, said: “Potable water is something that we want to protect and be great at protecting.
“By allowing you to create control points, our insertion valve prevents leakage, provides network optionality, and ultimately improves access to safe drinking water in the communities we serve.
“Critically, in areas that don’t have the option or funds to redo an entire pipe network, our solution empowers them to make the most of the existing network that they have.”
