E.A.S.E.:
EcoWater digital demand timers have the latest diagnostic technology. With E.A.S.E., or Electronic Au-
tomated Service Evaluation, a service person or homeowner can transmit operational data through the telephone,
to a personal computer (PC). The PC processes the data to determine if all electrical functions are working normally,
or helps to identify a problem should one occur. Ask your participating EcoWater dealer for more information on
this feature.
