Multi-Family Housing
Multi-family communities such as high-rise apartments, garden-style complexes, and even military housing developments face unique challenges managing water efficiently to maintain property values while also keeping costs predictable for residents. Let Metron’s water experts design a solution that will optimize water management through timely alerts and actionable insights.
Leak Detection and Risk Mitigation
Leaks are a daily risk in multi-family housing complexes, and with multiple buildings and many units, it can be really hard to identify where a leak is happening. By adding Metron submeters to each building, it becomes easy and quick to narrow down where the leaks are, making it much easier to find and fix them quickly. A serious leak in a building can cause substantial damage, so it’s vital to address it as fast as possible. In some cases, insurance providers may reduce their premiums for properties that deploy submeters. Our meters can be configured to send alerts as soon as a leak condition is identified.
For properties that can be submetered per unit, leak detection becomes even more targeted.
Zone Submetering and Monitoring
Fully understanding how much water is going into a specific building, or even an individual unit within a building, is crucial to both reducing costs and accelerated billing. By placing meters all along the water supply, Metron’s water customizable dashboard software, WaterScope®, can quickly identify how your facility’s water is being used. From something as large as a broken irrigation line to as small as a stuck toilet flapper in an individual unit, your team will be notified with role-based alerts in minutes! And by metering individual units in your complex, you now can now bill tenants for exactly what they are using which leads to faster billing, happier tenants, and streamlined dispute resolution.
Reduced Maintenance Costs
With over 30 years of experience in the water industry, the Metron team has engineered the most reliable and durable meters available. This means fewer repairs, replacements, and maintenance needs, leading to more consistent meter readings and lower long-term costs for your community. Couple this with Metron’s best-in-class customer support, and you can enjoy peace of mind that your metering solution will work reliably.
Automate ESG Reporting
As water sustainability becomes increasingly important, ESG teams are ratcheting up their water conservation goals. With WaterScope, gathering the necessary data for sustainability reports is simple, allowing you to track your conservation efforts across your portfolio of properties.
Streamlined Billing
For apartment complexes that are amenable to submetering, Metron’s cellular technology puts water usage data at your fingertips instantly, and our powerful data integration tools feed that usage data directly into your billing system, so you can rest assured that water billing will be painless every month.

Knowing exactly where the leaks are happening has been a game-changer for us. Before, we’d have had to send work crews door-to-door to try to find leaks—but now, we can make targeted repairs that quickly reduce total water use without driving up our maintenance costs.

Metron’s smart sensors are giving us the data we need to bring down costs across the board while bringing garden-style properties’ water infrastructure into the 21st century.
