Product Offering: |
Simmons provides monthly
tank and line leak detection monitoring services for tens of thousands of
underground storage tanks in the United States and Canada. Wilco™ is a UST compliance and fuel management service
that costs much less than competitive products. Because the system uses wireless
technology to transmit data from the level probes and sensors to the ATG
panel, installation is quick and inexpensive. Simmons monitors tanks using Wilco™
and provides compliance reports via the Internet by email, web
pages, fax and pager. Simmons SIRVEY software is used
worldwide to compile compliance reports and comply with U.S. leak detection
requirements. |

Target Markets: |
Owners and operators of
facilities with underground storage tanks such as convenience stores and
gasoline stations that do not have EPA-required leak detection systems or
those looking for a lower cost alternative monitoring system. Customers include Sunoco, Holiday
Stores, Evans Oil Company, Rutter’s Farm Stores and Toot’n Totum |
|
Distribution: |
Simmons sells its
products directly or through resellers and provides on-going monitoring
services. |
|
Of Special Interest: |
Simmons’ Wilco™ automatic
tank gauge uses Time Domain Reflectometry (TDR) technology. Data is
transmitted from the level probes and sensors to the ATG panel using
battlefield-proven spread-spectrum radio technology, providing ultra-reliable
wireless operation. Company executives are among the most
experienced in the UST leak-detection business and have created many of the
software and statistical applications used in monitoring fuel tanks and
lines. They have served in leadership positions in such industry groups as
the National Association of Convenience Stores and the National Advisory
Group. |
