JJM Alkaline Technologies Celebrates 20 Years of Manufacturing Condensate Neutralizers
WESTFIELD, Massachusetts — JJM Alkaline Technologies, a manufacturer of condensate neutralizers, is celebrating 20 years of delivering the best solutions on the market for the treatment of acidic condensate produced by high-efficiency, gas-fired heating appliances (i.e. 90+% boilers, furnaces, and hot water heaters).
JJM Alkaline Technologies was established in 2005 by its founder, George Carney, and his wife, Denise, in their home garage in Massachusetts. 20 years ago. JJM designed its first condensate neutralizer that was purpose-built to effectively treat acidic condensate, a byproduct of the condensing technology used in high-efficiency, gas-fired heating appliances. Unlike air conditioning condensate, acidic condensate is corrosive because it includes various acids from burning natural gas (or propane). If discharged untreated, it can corrode plumbing, concrete foundations, floor drains, septic systems and other wastewater infrastructure.
From modest beginnings, JJM’s innovative condensate neutralizer solutions quickly gained traction in the heating and plumbing industries. JJM products are sold via leading wholesale distributors of heating and plumbing equipment throughout the United States and Canada. The company continues to innovate and bring to market purpose-built solutions that heating and plumbing industry professionals rely on to efficiently and effectively treat acidic condensate.
“It’s incredible to recognize how much growth JJM has experienced over the last two decades,” said Kyle T. Emmons, president of JJM Alkaline Technologies. "As we celebrate this company milestone, we are energized about what the next 20 years will bring, especially as condensing heating equipment continues to be rapidly adopted across residential and commercial installations. JJM is positioned to equip HVAC and plumbing professionals with the best, purpose-built acidic condensate solutions on the market.”
With recent code developments, the treatment of acidic condensate is now required by local, national, and industry plumbing codes (i.e. 2018, 2021 editions of the International Plumbing Code (IPC)). Industry professionals should install and maintain condensate neutralizers on every condensing appliance installation to ensure code compliance and prevent property damage.
