Cases

Proven in the Field.

q.wave is already installed and running — on farms, in greenhouses, on golf courses, and across industrial water systems. Every case here comes from a real, working installation.

Real sites. Real operating conditions. Real observations.

Field Observations

One Platform.
Proven Across Every Application.

The same q.wave technology runs on farms, in ponds, in homes, on golf courses, in industrial systems, and in concrete and ready-mix production. Here's what's been observed and reported at each one.

No chemicals added. No heat. Just intelligent water conditioning that adapts as water flows.

One Platform. Different Water. Different Possibilities.

Korea Reference Case · Ganghwa Island · 2025

Ganghwa Experience Farm — Korean Melon (Chamoe)

Chamoe (Korean melon) is popular in Korea but notoriously hard to bring to full sweetness. This is a 2025 case of q.wave applied at a hands-on agritourism farm on Ganghwa Island.

Large, uniform melons with impressive sweetness

After using q.wave conditioned water for irrigation, the melons grew to a large and uniform size, with well-defined ridges and even color. Most notably, the sweetness observed on site was especially impressive. Because chamoe is a high-demand crop where sweetness is the key challenge, this stands as a strong reference case for how q.wave can help in the field.

Orlando, Florida — Cucumber Greenhouse

Orlando, FL · Greenhouse Irrigation

Cleaner irrigation. Healthier plants. Better harvests.

Before q.wave, the grower described difficulty keeping the irrigation basin clean and managing the crop.

After q.wave was introduced, the grower reported that irrigation-basin water quality and plant development looked better than before, with more uniform cucumbers.

Over the same period, the farm operated with about 20% less fertilizer input while reporting healthy development and a strong harvest.

Before
The grower described difficulty keeping the irrigation basin clean and managing the crop
After
The grower reported better irrigation-basin water quality and healthier plant development
Fruit Quality
More uniform cucumbers with improved flavor and texture, as reported by the grower
Fertilizer Use

Field observations reported by the grower at this installation. Results may vary depending on water source, crop, growing conditions, and farm management practices.

Field Observations

Different crops. Different farms.
A pattern worth watching.

Across q.wave growing sites, we continue to observe how plants respond under real farming conditions. From roots and foliage to fruit size, color, and texture, each site adds another piece to the story.

These images reflect observations from individual growing sites. Results may vary depending on crop variety, water source, soil, climate, and growing conditions.

1404 County Road 579, Florida · Installed April 15, 2026

Off-grid q.wave operation on a 40-acre vegetable farm

This approximately 40-acre vegetable farm grows cabbage, peppers, and zucchini using groundwater supplied from a central well.

q.wave was integrated into the farm's existing 6-inch PVC irrigation line, with the sensing system, signal coil, and Independent Earth Ground configured for the site. The system is powered entirely by solar energy, allowing q.wave to operate independently of grid power.

Jacksonville, FL · Installed April 23, 2026

q.wave installation on a 1,800-acre commercial farm

This large agricultural operation covers approximately 1,800 acres and operates around 30 individual irrigation zones.

As the first stage of a broader deployment, q.wave was installed on a 4-inch irrigation line serving approximately 40 acres, where cabbage and radish are grown using groundwater. The installation provides a practical starting point for evaluating q.wave within an existing large-scale irrigation infrastructure before expanding to additional zones.

Industrial Water
University Research Collaboration

Research Collaboration with the University of Central Florida (UCF)

q.wave is working with the University of Central Florida (UCF) on a controlled research program to better understand how q.wave-conditioned water performs under defined operating conditions.

The study focuses on mineral scale behavior in a controlled water-loop system, comparing treated and untreated conditions over time.

The goal is to move beyond field observations and build a clearer, data-based understanding of q.wave technology through structured university research.

Clearer Ponds.
Healthier Fairways.

q.wave has been applied to golf course ponds and irrigation systems in Korea, supporting water management from the water source to the turf. Course staff reported clearer, more stable pond conditions and easier irrigation management over the period — site reports, not controlled comparisons.

Concrete & Ready-Mix
Concrete & Ready-Mix Applications in Development

q.wave applications for concrete and ready-mix water are currently being explored. Case studies will be added as field data on hydration, curing, and concrete performance becomes available.

Industries

One Technology.
Everywhere Water Works.

Water plays a different role in every industry — growing crops, transferring heat, supporting hydration, or keeping systems operating efficiently. q.wave applies the same core approach to each: sense the water, adapt the signal, and condition it as it flows.

Different applications. Same intelligent approach to water.
