Smart Water Meter - Benefits
What are the benefits of Smart Water Meters?
The cost of Metered Water is increasing along with energy - and the costs for heavy users is considerable.
When you combine this with a degree of inaccurate billing that is widely recognised as unacceptable there is a strong case to implement a Smart Meter (AMR) program to control and monitor your water usage. AMR will help you to identify and eliminate misbilling and a detailed analysis of your water usage can be broken down by building, department, tenant, equipment or shift.
Water Utility Managers listed various benefits when adopting smart meters:
Experience gained by accessing detailed analysis of water usage can be broken down by building, department, tenant, equipment or shift.

Utility Managers rated the following benefits by effectiveness:
- Improved preventative maintenance – 18 percent
- Curbing overall water demand – 19 percent
- Monitor/reduce water use – 35 percent
- Early leak detection – 62%
Other benefits are:
- Return on Investment typically less than 12 months
- Rapid rectification of water leaks
- Successful Monitoring and Targeting Programme reduces water consumption
- Controls costs and manages future budgets
- Measures site against site
- Bills on actual meter readings – reducing water charges
