WaterPulse Hits Installation Milestone

WaterPulse recently announced that it has now installed 10 million square feet of WaterPulse capillary watering mats in greenhouses, nurseries, garden centers and indoor growing operations in North America.

This is the equivalent of 230 acres and would cover more than 200 football fields. In linear feet, it would cover a distance of over 860 miles — which is more than the distance from Chicago to New York City.

WaterPulse’s watering mats hep growers and retailers limit their irrigation to a few watering cycles of a few minutes each per day, depending on location and temperature.

“In an average retail season, a garden center uses enough water to fill almost 30 swimming pools, and for growers, water and labor costs are two of their biggest concerns,” says Jim Heffernan, CEO of WaterPulse. “We’re pleased to play a small part in helping to conserve vital resources.”
