unparalleled experience to continue the expansion of our presence
in the market while also continuing the company's charitable focus

Malcolm Morris shared, "With less
than 1% of the earth's fresh water available for human consumption,
the management of water, especially in urban areas, must accelerate
to reduce water use to more sustainable levels. Weathermatic has
developed the equipment, software, and managed services to reduce
landscape water consumption on commercial and residential
properties by 50% with a financial payback in typically less than
three years. My combined passions in water, real estate, and
managed services will be dedicated to applying best practices
developed by Weathermatic to serve its customers globally."
