Water Mate
Introducing Water Mate, a revolutionary valve system by Restoration Mate—Toronto’s trusted experts in water damage repair and restoration. Drawing on years of industry experience and a proven track record of successful water-saving projects, we’ve created Water Mate to help you significantly lower your metered water consumption by reducing air volume in your lines.
How it Works
By maintaining your flow rate within the optimal range, Water Mate ensures more accurate water meter readings and helps prevent overcharges caused by excess air pressure. Our valve keeps the line properly pressurized at the meter, reducing excessively high-water pressure and saving you money on every bill.

Water Mate Valve uses the latest technology to increase the density of water running through a meter which improves meter accuracy. To increase water density, the WATER MATE valve compresses the air in the water flow as it is being metered. WATER MATE valve has drastically improved the efficiency of upstream water past the meter. An additional benefit is the elimination of turbulence that typically accompanies water passing through meters.
Every WATER MATE Valve is NSF, ANSI, and CAN certified and approved for potable drinking water systems. So long as you have a property serviced by a utility water supply, WATER MATE has a valve for that is legal to install and certified by the National Science Foundation.

Water in Transit
Consider the path water travels to get to your property.It starts at a reservoir or water tower, where it’s channeled into city water mains, under immense pressure. From here the water travels through pumping stations, intersecting water lines, increases and decreases in elevation and temperature, all of which builds turbulence in your water in the form of air and water vapor bubbles.
Turbulence at Your Meter
By the time water reaches your meter, as much as 40% of the volume within could be in the form of air, attributed to this turbulence. It is important to understand that your water meter is a flow meter in that it measures volume not contents. This is to say that as long as something is moving through your water line, be it water, gas or debris, your meter will read the line as being full.
Corrected Water Flow
Once installed on the property side of the water meter, WATERGATER valves create a compression zone of laminar flow that extends up to 200 feet back, through your meter. This compression zone prevents air/water mixture in its uncompressed form from entering your water meter. The result can be measured in reduced consumption by volume, since you will only be billed for water, not air.
This Is How It Works:
1. WATER MATE valve, installed on the customer’s side of the meter, solves this turbulent water or air bubbles problem by maintaining city pressure from the WATER MATE valve back UPSTREAM, past the meter into the city’s main

The Science Behind It
WATERMATE valve technology is based on the mathematical principals of Boyle’s Law, which states that pressure and volume are inversely proportional. This means that when you add pressure to particle matter (especially gas) – it will compress. We leverage this phenomenon to compress air particles into liquid form when passing through your water flow meter. It saves you money by saving on volume registered. We don’t remove the air from your water supply, we simply compress it.
Pressure and Volume
To put it simply: when pressure goes up, volume goes down. This was first considered in the 1600’s – before the advent of modern plumbing. Devised as a mathematical formula to explain the relationship between gas and pressure, Boyle’s Law can be used to determine an increase or decrease in gas volume when pressure is applied or relieved.
Room for Compression
States of matter are relative. As we can determine with the consolidated Ideal Gas Law learned above, matter can actually transfer between these states through an increase or decrease of pressure and temperature. Solid matter can turn to liquid if heated enough, just as a liquid can turn to solid if cooled sufficiently. Think of water turning to ice. Thankfully, the gaseous state of matter can allow for a degree of “wiggle room” with particles spread out far enough for compression. Gas volume can be compressed significantly before being forced into a liquid state
Why Has Nobody Thought Of This?
In short – there are many oversights in modern construction practices. With global populations booming over the last century, we’ve had to cut corners as we go. Japan has two incompatible power grids. America builds homes with hollow walls and soft lumber. Modern plumbing and regulations arguably aren’t even 100 years old yet, with codes and legislation for standards only being introduced in the 1930’s. Water saving laws started being introduced in the 1980’s. Less than a century ago, most homes didn’t have indoor plumbing. To put it simply, people just haven’t had to look closely enough at their water bills until relatively recently.
