Leak Detection using Smart Water Meters is one of several benefits of smart meters. As leaders in water metering services, we explain how this amazing technology can help detect leaks early and save you money!
Leak Detection Using Smart Meters: Real-Time Meter Readings
Smart water meters record real-time meter readings and data, no more manual meter reading on-site and in person.
With smart water meters, you can get live, updated meter readings on your mobile phone.
We use our WaterEye App which integrates seamlessly with smart water meter technology.
When observing consumption data in real-time you can easily identify peaks in consumption, particularly after hours.
These spikes in consumption could be an indication of a leak somewhere in the pipe works.
Leak Detection Using Smart Meters: Acoustic Technology
The latest smart water meter technology uses built-in acoustic leak detection sensors. With built-in acoustic leakage detection, smart water meters work for you to detect possible leakages in the service connections and distribution mains.
This smart meter technology monitors noise patterns giving you a better picture of the condition of your network and enabling you to identify high-risk installations.
The Cost of Leaks
Water leaks are not only a waste of precious resources but can also cost you a lot of money! A water leak that loses just 1 litre per minute can, over time if left unattended, result in a total of 525 600 litres of wasted water in a year.
This volume of wasted water can result in big monetary losses. But with Smart water meters, you can detect leaks early and save money.
Other Benefits of Smart Water Meters
Smart water meters provide value in many other ways including Reducing operating costs by means of accurate billing, Reduce Non-Revenue Water Consumption, Peace of mind and most notably compliance with the Cape Town water by-law.
