WESTFIELD, Mass. — JJM Alkaline Technologies, a manufacturer of condensate neutralizers, is celebrating 20 years of delivering solutions for the treatment of acidic condensate produced by high-efficiency, gas-fired heating appliances such as boilers, furnaces, and water heaters.
JJM Alkaline Technologies was established in 2005 by George Carney and his wife, Denise, in the garage of their home in Massachusetts. Twenty 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, a press release from the company said. If discharged untreated, acidic condensate can corrode plumbing, concrete foundations, floor drains, septic systems, and other wastewater infrastructure.
From modest beginnings, JJM’s condensate neutralizer solutions quickly gained traction in the heating and plumbing industries, the press release said. JJM products are sold via leading wholesale distributors of heating and plumbing equipment throughout the U.S. and Canada.
“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, including the 2018 and 2021 editions of the International Plumbing Code (IPC).
