What Do The Water Meter Guys Do?
We're in the business of helping to ensure that what people pay for their water usage is fair, equitable and based on their actual usage, by installing individual water meters.
Water Meters help reduce consumption which benefits the environment, saves consumers money and saves utility providers money too by not having to invest in developing their existing infrastructure.
What is Sub-metering?
According to Unity Water's Sub-Metering Fact Sheet, water sub-metering is the implementation of a multi-water meter system that allows apartment and other multi-unit property owners to measure their own individual water usage and be charged for their respective water consumption.
Typical users of sub-metering are owners and or managers of private units, duplexes, townhouses, apartment complexes, and commercial buildings, ensuring transparency and accountability within the body corporate.
Why is Sub Metering Useful?
Prior to 2008, it was not mandatory to install water meters within multi-unit residential premises and commercial buildings, including apartment buildings. Premises constructed before January 1, 2008, typically relied on a single water meter for the entire property, resulting in charges based on a predetermined apportionment schedule.
This setup meant that individual lot owners had no insight into their personal water use, potentially discouraging them from reducing consumption. In cases of shared water meters, residents may unknowingly bear the cost of others' water use, particularly prevalent in holiday homes versus permanent residences within the same property.
Sub-meters measure water use at the individual level, allowing water service providers to furnish consumption data directly to residential unit owners. This ensures fair billing and encourages responsible water usage, benefiting both the environment and consumers.

Wireless Water Sub Meter
A Wireless Water Submeter is a cutting-edge metering solution for residential, commercial, or industrial water consumption. Unlike traditional meters, these remote-enabled sub meters use wireless communication to transmit usage data to a central monitoring system, eliminating the need for costly wiring installations.
This makes them perfect for retrofitting existing properties or areas where wiring is impractical. Wireless submeters enable real-time data monitoring, empowering property owners, managers, and utility providers to track water usage accurately. With easy installation and remote monitoring capabilities, they facilitate efficient water management and conservation efforts in residential and commercial settings alike.
Wifi Water Sub Meter
A WiFi Water Submeter is a cutting-edge sub water meter that harnesses WiFi technology for seamless data transmission. These submeters feature WiFi modules, enabling connectivity to local networks and effortless data transmission to central monitoring systems or cloud platforms.
With WiFi connectivity, users enjoy remote access to real-time water consumption data via smartphones, tablets, or computers, ensuring convenience for property owners, managers, and utility providers. WiFi water submeters streamline installation processes, offer flexible data access, and seamlessly integrate with smart home or building automation systems.
They are a preferred choice for installing sub meters, ensuring efficient maintenance and providing valuable water service insights to body corporates and property managers.
Water Sub Meter With Remote Reader
A Water Sub Meter with a remote reader combines traditional water sub meter functionality with remote reading capability, comprising a sub meter at the point of water usage and a remote reader device.
The sub meter accurately measures water consumption at specific locations like apartment building units or commercial spaces, while the remote reader, equipped with technology such as radio frequency or cellular communication, wirelessly collects usage data.
This data is then transmitted to a central monitoring system or cloud-based platform, facilitating real-time insights into water usage and streamlining management and billing processes.
Water Sub Meter With Remote Reader
A Water submeter installation involves several steps to accurately measure and monitor water usage. Firstly, the location for the submeter is determined, typically at individual units or points of water consumption within a property.
Then, the submeter is installed by qualified technicians, ensuring proper placement and connection to the water supply line. Once installed, the submeter accurately measures water consumption at the designated location.
Finally, if applicable, a remote reader may be installed to wirelessly collect usage data for remote monitoring and analysis. Overall, Water submeter installation ensures precise tracking of water usage, enabling efficient management and conservation efforts.

With real-time insights provided by water submeter readings, stakeholders can implement proactive measures to optimise water usage and reduce costs.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Sub metered systems measure each tenant's water usage, rather than the standard metered system that records all the water usage and divides them equally amongst tenants. This is an attractive option for body corporate property owners as many potential tenants don't want to pay for water that's only been used by their neighbours.
Standard metering measures the water consumption level of a multi-tenant property (e.g. apartment building), whereas submetering measures consumption levels of individual tenants within a multi-tenant property. The use of submetering benefits customers who only want to pay for the water they use - making submetering more attractive for body corporate and owners of multi-tenant properties.
Sub meters for water are used to measure or record the amount of water used by a tenant within a multi-tenant property.
