What Is Aqueduct?
The Aqueduct is a gravity-fed water delivery system that allows a large volume of potable drinking water to be conveniently transported, stored, and dispensed, within a relatively small footprint. Not only is it important for all of humanity to have clean drinking water, but we must also place equal value on the importance of convenience, and availability, of drinking water.
The Aqueduct water system can provide these benefits in a number of scenarios including, but not limited to, dining establishments, large-scale special events, remote industrial or military sites, communities affected by natural disasters, and even in developing areas where clean water is scarce.
How Aqueduct Works
We wanted to create a solution that leverages the ubiquity, and relative simplicity, of five-gallon water bottles in our modern world.
The Aqueduct system is a simple-to-use modular platform, housing as many standard five-gallon bottles as needed (with our custom solutions), that uses gravity to empty one bottle at a time, as seen in the video above. This also has the added benefit of making it easy to swap out empty bottles long before the last bottle runs dry, ensuring a constant supply.
Our modular system also allows for various add-ons to be installed, including an ozonator, carbonator, chiller, water meter, and even a washing station complete with drainage.
Why Aqueduct?
We help eco-friendly organizations who sell or provide drinking water, achieve unmatched sustainability, availability, and profitability, by simply refilling reusable bottles and cups with locally-sourced fresh artesian spring water.

What if there was a way to overcome “I’ll Just Have Water,” and replace their glass of water with something that has astronomical profit margins?
In most cases, businesses see their investment paid for in less than 30 days!
(Try out the ROI Calculator below to determine how much you’ll profit.)
Future Trends
With society becoming more aware of their dietary habits, and choosing to make more health-conscious decisions, the food & drink industry has seen a downward trend of soda/pop, and alcoholic beverage, sales. Additionally, the legalization of cannabis in some areas has also disrupted profits from alcohol sales in general – not just in bars and restaurants.
What are consumers drinking instead? Water!
Global bottled water sales are projected to reach $319.8 billion by 2022, with a compound annual growth rate
of 9.5% from 2015 to 2022 (via Allied Market Research).
Replacing Lost Profits With Healthy Alternatives
With typical beverage sales continuing to plummet in the average bar or restaurant, what can be done to replace those lost profits? The Aqueduct water system allows any bar, or restaurant, to easily offer a relatively new and interesting beverage to their guests that will play to their newfound sense of healthy living:
Mineral-fortified, all-natural, spring water!
“Tap Water, or Mineral-Enriched Spring Water?”
Now servers can respond to, “I’ll just have water,” with, “Would you prefer tap water, or mineral-enriched spring water?” Many people shudder at the idea of drinking their local tap water, guaranteeing numerous sales. Many more will be intrigued, and excited, to make a health-positive choice that increases their daily intake of minerals, by simply drinking spring water.
Pro Tip: Add various herbs, fruits, or rose petals to enhance the flavor of your spring water. Alternatively, try replacing seltzer water with spring water to add a new dimension to your mixed drinks!

Healthy Options For Health-Conscious People
Young people are trending more and more towards healthier lifestyles. The days of partying hard, and rolling into the office smelling of booze, are long-gone. Going to the gym, eating right, and building positive lifestyle habits to promote a longer life is considered standard practice these days.

Disaster Relief
Deploy ample water reserves, easily.
Water, Where It’s Needed Most
Anytime an unexpected disaster occurs, and everyone’s safety becomes compromised, drinking water is rarely the first thought that goes through people’s minds. However, the need to deploy large quantities of safe drinking water, and having the ability to do so, quickly becomes evident as a disaster situation evolves. With that in-mind, the Aqueduct Water System was designed to be easy-to-use, and highly adaptable, in any situation.
Safety & Security
Whether drinking water is needed out in the field, or at a centralized Disaster Recovery Centre, the Aqueduct system is quick to setup, and rugged enough to take a beating, keeping precious drinking water safe from any external forces.
Even better, our system is also affordable enough to justify having multiple dispensing stations that can be placed strategically around any emergency shelter, to prevent overcrowding, resource hoarding, and infighting among community members. Each dispensing station can easily be topped-up with standard 5-gallon jugs held in reserve.
