Real-Time Visibility for Smarter Collection System Management

You can’t manage what you can’t see.

For many wastewater utilities, critical collection system assets operate underground and out of sight, leaving operators to react to problems after they occur. SmartCover changes that by providing continuous monitoring, predictive analytics, and real-time alerts that help utilities identify issues before they become emergencies.
HydroPro Solutions partners with utilities across Texas to deploy SmartCover monitoring technology that helps prevent sewer overflows, optimize maintenance programs, improve operational efficiency, and support data-driven infrastructure planning.
HydroPro is one of the nation’s most experienced SmartCover partners, helping utilities transform real-time collection system data into proactive operational decisions.

Why SmartCover?

See More. Respond Faster. Plan Smarter.

SmartCover provides continuous visibility into collection system conditions through advanced monitoring technology, secure satellite communications, and predictive analytics.
Instead of relying on periodic inspections, customer complaints, or emergency callouts, utilities gain access to real-time information that helps crews make informed decisions before problems escalate.

With SmartCover, utilities can:

  • Prevent sanitary sewer overflows (SSOs)
  • Detect developing blockages before backups occur
  • Optimize sewer cleaning programs
  • Monitor inflow and infiltration (I&I)
  • Improve crew efficiency and resource allocation
  • Support capital improvement planning
  • Increase system resiliency during severe weather events
Whether your goal is reducing emergency response costs, extending asset life, or improving collection system performance, SmartCover provides the visibility needed to take proactive action.

How SmartCover Works

See More. Respond Faster. Plan Smarter.

SmartCover combines field-proven monitoring hardware, satellite communications, cloud-based dashboards, and intelligent analytics into a complete collection system monitoring solution.

Monitor

Sensors continuously collect sewer level, flow, rainfall, and infrastructure data from critical locations throughout your system.

Act

With actionable insights and real-time information, utilities can prioritize maintenance, deploy crews more effectively, and reduce the risk of costly failures.

Analyze

Advanced analytics evaluate historical and current system conditions to identify trends, anomalies, and developing issues.

Alert

When unusual conditions are detected, operators receive notifications and alarms that provide early warning of potential problems.

SmartLevel™

Continuous Sewer Level Monitoring
SmartLevel provides real-time monitoring of sewer levels throughout your collection system, helping operators identify changing conditions before they become service interruptions.
Subtle changes in sewer behavior often indicate developing issues such as:
  • FOG accumulation
  • Root intrusion
  • Debris blockages
  • Capacity constraints
  • Pipe deterioration
  • Overflow risks
By continuously monitoring sewer levels, SmartLevel gives utilities the information needed to take corrective action before a blockage becomes an emergency.
Benefits:
  • 24/7 collection system visibility
  • Early warning notifications
  • Reduced emergency response events
  • Improved operational awareness
  • Better system performance

SmartTrend™

Predict Problems Before They Happen
Most monitoring systems tell you what is happening now.
SmartTrend helps identify what may happen next.
Using patented predictive analytics, SmartTrend continuously evaluates changing sewer conditions to identify anomalies and developing trends that may indicate future problems.
By analyzing subtle day-to-day changes in level and flow data, SmartTrend can detect warning signs associated with:
  • FOG buildup
  • Sediment accumulation
  • Root intrusion
  • Pipe degradation
  • Developing blockages
  • Overflow conditions
This allows operators to shift from reactive maintenance to proactive planning.
What SmartTrend Delivers
  • Automated daily system analysis
  • Predictive notifications
  • Planned maintenance opportunities
  • Improved resource allocation
  • Reduced operational risk
  • Better decision-making through data
When crews know where issues are developing, they can focus resources where they’re needed most.

SmartClean™

Cleaning Based on Need, Not Guesswork
Many utilities rely on fixed cleaning schedules because they lack visibility into actual collection system conditions.
The result is often over-cleaning in some areas, under-cleaning in others, and significant operational costs.
SmartClean uses real-time monitoring and predictive analytics to help utilities transition from high-frequency cleaning programs to condition-based maintenance.
Instead of cleaning on a calendar schedule, operators can clean where and when conditions indicate action is needed.
Benefits of SmartClean
  • Reduced cleaning costs
  • Increased crew productivity
  • Improved safety
  • Lower traffic management expenses
  • Extended asset life
  • Reduced pipe wear and deterioration
  • Ongoing protection between cleanings
SmartClean helps utilities maintain system performance while making better use of personnel, equipment, and budgets.

SmartRain™

Understand the Impact of Rainfall on Your Collection System
Rainfall events can significantly impact collection system performance, yet many utilities struggle to understand exactly how weather affects specific portions of their system.
SmartRain combines SmartCover monitoring data with rainfall and weather information to provide a comprehensive view of how storm events influence sewer levels and flows.
This powerful combination helps utilities identify:
  • Inflow and infiltration (I&I)
  • Rainfall-driven capacity constraints
  • Wet-weather performance issues
  • Areas requiring rehabilitation
  • High-priority capital improvement projects
Make Better Infrastructure Decisions
By understanding where rainwater is entering the collection system and how it affects operations, utilities can:
  • Prioritize rehabilitation projects
  • Improve capital planning
  • Mitigate overflow risks
  • Measure project effectiveness
  • Develop more accurate budgets
SmartRain transforms weather data into actionable operational intelligence.

Built for Real Utility Challenges

Utilities today face increasing demands with limited resources.
Aging infrastructure, growing populations, regulatory requirements, severe weather events, and staffing challenges require better information and smarter decision-making.
SmartCover helps utilities move beyond reactive operations by providing:
  • Continuous monitoring
  • Real-time alerts
  • Predictive analytics
  • Actionable reporting
  • Reliable satellite communications
  • Secure cloud-based access
Even during cellular outages and severe weather conditions, SmartCover continues delivering critical infrastructure visibility when it’s needed most.
