TORONTO, July 27,
2022 /CNW/ - Eddy Smart Home Solutions Ltd.'s (Eddy
Solutions) (TSXV: EDY) is pleased to announce an ongoing
partnership with Southern Ontario
progressive developer Edenshaw.
The partnership started during the early days of the
construction of Edenshaw's Port
Credit-based luxury mid-rise development, TANU, built by PCL
Construction. The first full-scale deployment through Eddy's
partnership with PCL, the project aligned all stakeholders
including the mechanical and electrical design consultants from
construction through to operations, protecting the property from
the builder's risk period to turnover and beyond.
Given the success of this project, Edenshaw has extended Eddy's
system into two more buildings to their portfolio. Based on Eddy's
existing contracts of a similar nature, the incremental contracted
value opportunity is approximately 1.7M.
"Water is one of the biggest concerns we have in building
condominiums. It's an obvious necessity, but leaking water causes
horrific damage to our buildings, and we need to take precautions,"
said David Scott, Managing Director
of Edenshaw. "We're extremely happy with Eddy and the services they
provide, and we look forward to working with them in the
future."
Eddy's holistic system encompasses use of sensors, flow
monitoring, and automated shutoff valves, reducing the risk of
water-related issues. Connecting to a mobile App and property
management dashboard and backed by 24/7 monitoring, the system
significantly reduces the risk of water damage and overall water
waste.
With an on-valve remote shut-off installed within every main
water riser zone including the incoming water main working in
conjunction with the leak sensors throughout the building, the
project team was alerted to shut off a valve whenever a leak was
detected. In the finished building, Eddy's system is now a feature
for residents, who receive not only overall protection against
water damage, but individual insurance discounts as well.
"This was a collaborative effort to bring Eddy Solutions here at
TANU, and we're thrilled with the success of the deployment," added
Mark Bryant, Chief Information
Officer for PCL. "Edenshaw chose to implement the system as part of
their ongoing strategy for water control and leak protection.
The project aligns with PCL's digital construction strategy
to bring in new technologies to learn from and implement on future
projects for clients across our entire portfolio."
TANU has been a pilot project for a number of technology
initiatives, as part of PCL's ongoing digital transformation
strategy and core construction offering. From a full suite of Eddy
Solutions to Internet of Things (IoT) single point sensors, to
artificial intelligence and machine learning, TANU is a case study
for the benefits of technology in construction.
"As one of our first completed projects with PCL, TANU
represents so much for us here at Eddy," said Travis Allan, CEO and President of Eddy
Solutions. "Edenshaw represents a developer that is not only
committed to creating incredible living spaces for residents, but
implementing technology that protects as well as conserves water,
providing sustainability practices for their building's approach to
water."
