# Water Savers: Reduce Water, Increase Efficiency, and Keep Your Operations Moving

Many conventional dust control programs require roads to be pre-watered before MgCl₂ can be applied effectively. While this process has long been considered standard practice, it also increases water usage, extends treatment time, and creates additional demands on equipment and personnel.

For many operations, the water truck becomes the bottleneck—slowing production, increasing costs, and limiting the number of miles crews can treat each day.

## The Challenge with Traditional Dust Control

Pre-wetting roadways before applying MgCl₂ may seem routine, but it introduces several operational challenges, including:

- Increased water consumption
- Longer application times
- More labor hours
- Higher fuel usage
- Greater equipment wear and maintenance
- Additional crew downtime

These extra steps don't just consume resources—they also reduce productivity. When water trucks are tied up supporting dust control operations, they can limit how quickly roads can be treated and returned to service.

## A Smarter Approach with Water Saver Technology

EnviroTech Services' Water Saver product line is designed to reduce or even eliminate the need for pre-wetting before MgCl₂ application.

By improving how quickly magnesium chloride penetrates dry road surfaces, Water Saver allows crews to achieve effective dust control with significantly less water while streamlining the entire application process.

The result is a faster, more efficient operation that keeps equipment moving and roads open.

## Key Benefits of Water Savers

### Reduce Water Usage

Water Saver dramatically reduces dependence on traditional pre-wetting cycles, helping conserve one of your operation's most valuable resources.

### Improve Operational Efficiency

With less time spent watering roads, crews can treat more miles each day while reducing dependence on water trucks.

### Lower Operating Costs

Using less water also means:

- Lower fuel consumption
- Reduced labor hours
- Less equipment runtime
- Lower maintenance costs
- Reduced overall operating expenses

## Better Roadway Performance

Water Saver technology is engineered to improve the performance of your MgCl₂ applications by helping product penetrate the roadway more effectively.

Benefits include:

- Improved roadway absorption
- Reduced pooling and runoff
- Shorter treatment times
- Faster return of roadways to traffic
- Improved product utilization

## The Operational Impact

When water trucks are no longer the limiting factor, crews can accomplish more with the same resources.

By simplifying the application process, Water Saver helps crews spend less time preparing roads and more time completing them.

## Supporting Both Productivity and Sustainability

Reducing water usage isn't just good for your budget, it's also good for long-term sustainability goals.

Using less water and reducing equipment runtime helps operations:

- Conserve valuable water resources
- Lower greenhouse gas emissions
- Reduce fuel consumption
- Improve overall environmental stewardship

For organizations focused on both operational performance and responsible resource management, Water Saver delivers benefits that extend well beyond dust control.

## The Bottom Line

Traditional dust control often requires more water, more equipment, and more time than necessary. EnviroTech Services' Water Saver technology changes that.

By reducing or eliminating pre-wetting requirements, improving MgCl₂ penetration, and simplifying operations, Water Saver helps organizations reduce water usage, lower operating costs, and treat more roadway miles each day.

If you're looking for a smarter way to improve dust control while maximizing productivity, Water Saver provides the operational efficiency today's road maintenance programs demand.
