About Tandem

Built around one simple idea.

Tandem Water Technologies, Inc. exists to solve a problem: hundreds of millions of people treat wastewater where no sewer exists, and the industry’s compliant answers cost as much as a car.

The response is a family of original, manufacturable products — Core, Core-G, Boost, Loop, Tide and the Detectable Cap — designed together, sharing one philosophy: proven treatment approaches, radically simplified mechanics, fail-safe controls, and a price the world can pay. The company is pre-launch: five US patent applications are pending, and every product is in development, awaiting final certification before release.

“Technology only changes the world at a price the world can pay.”
— Founding principle, Tandem Water Technologies
5Products in the family — Core, Core-G, Boost, Loop and Tide
5US patent applications pending — filed before any public disclosure
1Idea behind all of it: treat water in tandem with the home

Dealers & distributors — United States & Canada

Sold, installed and serviced locally. Coordinated from one hub.

Tandem does not sell around the trade — it sells through it. We are setting up a dealer and distributor network across the US and Canada now, ahead of launch, and signing up the founding cohort: when the first certified products ship, they land in a network that already exists, already knows the products, and already earns from the partner-product shelf.

Where things stand, plainly: the programme is in formation. No dealer is appointed anywhere yet — the territories below are the launch map, and founding seats are open for application.

Supply: Tandem Core · Boost · Loop + partner products→ The hub: this website · Amazon storefront · lead routing · MAP pricing→ Local network: dealers install & service · distributors stock regionally→ Homeowners, served locally

The website works for the dealer

A homeowner who finds Tandem online enters their ZIP or postal code in the locator below and is routed to their local dealer. Web leads are attributed to the territory dealer, who earns the margin on the sale — the site feeds the network instead of competing with it.

No channel fights

One MAP price everywhere — our site, the Amazon storefront, and every dealer. Anything that needs installation is never sold direct online; Amazon carries consumables and simple partner products only. A dealer never loses a sale to our own checkout.

Fulfilment climbs a ladder

Every relationship starts with drop-shipping: the maker or Tandem ships, the dealer holds no inventory and risks no capital. Products whose demand is proven graduate to dealer stocking, then to distributor warehousing — inventory follows sales, never the other way round.

One hub, two countries

Canada runs on the same programme with its own settings: CAD pricing, provincial installer licensing, Québec French labelling, and BNQ standards where they apply. Cross-border leads route to the dealer in the customer’s country — always.

The three tiers

Tier 1 — The foundation

Authorized Dealer / Installer

Who: licensed onsite-wastewater installers, septic service companies and plumbers — plus RV and marine dealers for Tandem Loop. You get: dealer pricing on Tandem and partner products, leads routed from this site’s locator, factory training and installation certification, drop-ship fulfilment from day one, and co-branded local marketing. You do: sell, install, register the warranty, and provide first-line service in your territory.

Tier 2 — Stocking partners

Regional Distributor

Distributors are not recruited cold — they are promoted from the dealer cohort as a territory’s volume proves out. A distributor holds regional inventory, supplies and supports the dealers around it, and hosts training. Territories open in sequence, and nobody is asked to warehouse product before the demand exists to move it.

Tier 3 — Feet on the street

Independent Sales Representatives

Commission-only territory reps who recruit and support dealers, work the trade shows and county programmes, and carry the Tandem story into mandate regions between dealer visits. No salary, no inventory — earnings tied directly to territory activation and dealer sales.

First-wave recruiting territories

Recruitment starts where mandates, density and home turf make the first dealers successful — then expands territory by territory.

UNITED STATESVirginia

Home turf. HQ-led recruiting of onsite installers and septic service firms statewide — the first pilot installs happen here.

RECRUITING FIRST
UNITED STATESSuffolk County, NY

A nitrogen-mandate county already replacing conventional systems with advanced treatment — dealers there sell compliance every day.

RECRUITING
UNITED STATESFlorida mandate counties

Springs and basin-management counties with upgrade deadlines — installers and service providers serving mandated homeowners.

RECRUITING
CANADAOntario

Provincially licensed onsite installers, with Loop placed through RV and marine dealers across the province.

RECRUITING
CANADABritish Columbia

Onsite installers plus RV and marine dealers — the West Coast beachhead for both the treatment line and Loop.

First wave, recruiting now — Virginia · Suffolk County, NY · Florida’s mandate counties · Ontario · British Columbia. Check your code to see your territory’s status and how to claim the founding seat.

The dealer agreement, in outline

Every founding dealer signs the same standard agreement. This is its outline — the full document is shared during application review; nobody is appointed by handshake.

Appointment & territoryA defined local territory; homeowner leads generated inside it route to you. Founding dealers get first refusal when distributor territories open.
Pricing & MAPDealer pricing by tier, one MAP price across all channels, and volume tiers that improve terms automatically as sales grow.
FulfilmentDrop-ship from day one under a written ship-time commitment; stocking and warehousing only by mutual agreement when volume justifies it.
Warranty & supportProduct warranty sits with Tandem and its manufacturing partners; installation workmanship sits with the dealer. Tandem backs the dealer with training, parts and escalation support.
TrainingFactory training and installation certification are completed before a dealer’s first installation — and refreshed as new products certify.
Brand use“Tandem Authorized Dealer” marks, listings and co-branding under the agreement — live only while the agreement is in force.
TermAn initial term with renewal on performance; either side may exit on written notice, with in-territory customers handed over cleanly.

Questions

Honest answers, at design stage

Can I buy a Tandem product today?
Not yet — and we’d rather say so plainly. All Tandem products are in development and awaiting final certification before release. Nothing on this site is an offer for sale. Use the contact section to register interest, and we’ll tell you first when your product clears certification.
When will the products be released?
Only after final certification — that is a hard rule, not a target date. A certification programme is in preparation, and we will announce milestones as they are reached, not before.
Does Boost really work with any brand?
That is the point of it: Boost is an add-on that upgrades the septic system you already have — cleaner output and water reuse, without replacing your system.
What happens if a Tandem unit fails?
Every Tandem product is designed fail-safe: if something goes wrong, protecting the home and the water comes first. Fail-safe behaviour is a founding design principle across the whole family.
I’m a supplier, installer or potential partner — how do I reach you?
Directly — see Contact below. We’re interested in media and component suppliers, installer-distributors in mandate regions, and pilot-site partners. Please note products are pre-launch, so partnership conversations are about the development programme and launch sequencing.
How do I become a Tandem dealer or distributor?
Start here to become a Tandem dealer: check your territory in the locator, then apply with your territory, licence and installation volume. The programme is in formation — we are signing the founding dealer cohort in the US and Canada ahead of launch, fulfilment starts drop-ship with no inventory to buy, and distributors are later promoted from proven dealers. Portal access is issued when your agreement is signed.
How do I test my well water?
Start with a water testing kit or a local laboratory test: a kit gives you a quick read on the basics at home, and a lab test gives a fuller picture when you need certainty — for example before buying a home, or if the taste, smell or colour of your water changes. Water testing kits are part of the planned Tandem Select partner range — see how to test your well water through Tandem Select.
How often should I test my well water?
As a rule of thumb, test once a year — and sooner if anything changes: after flooding or nearby construction, or whenever the taste, smell or appearance of the water shifts. A private well has no utility testing it for you, so a simple annual habit is what keeps surprises away.
What are the signs my septic system may need an upgrade rather than a replacement?
Slow drains, gurgling pipes, sewage odours, unusually lush or soggy ground over the drain field, a failed inspection, or a notice that your area is moving to tighter nitrogen limits — all point to treatment performance, not necessarily to a failed tank. If the tank itself is sound, the answer may be an upgrade rather than a full replacement; a failing or collapsed tank is the case where replacement is the right call.
Can I upgrade my existing septic system without replacing it?
Yes — that is the point of Tandem Boost: Boost is an add-on that upgrades the septic system you already have — cleaner output and water reuse, without replacing your system. Boost is in development and awaiting final certification before release.
What is greywater recycling?
Greywater is the gently used water from showers, baths, bathroom sinks and laundry. Greywater recycling means treating that water so it can be safely used again — for example for flushing or garden use — instead of sending drinking-quality water away with every use. It is one of the simplest ways a home can cut the water it wastes.
What are the water options for RVs, boats and off-grid living?
Away from mains water and sewer, the same two problems follow you: carrying enough fresh water, and dealing with wastewater. Tandem is developing overview-level answers for both — Tandem Loop, a self-contained toilet that recycles its own flush water, and Tandem Tide, which turns seawater into drinking water for boats. Both are in development and awaiting final certification before release.
How can I save on water filter replacement costs?
Replacement filters and cartridges are where filtration quietly gets expensive over the years. The Tandem Select partner range is being chosen with running costs in mind — sensibly priced replacement filters, available through the same dealer network, so keeping your filtration working doesn’t cost more than it should. The first partner products and water testing services are available now in the Tandem store.
