Is Your Property Losing Water – and Money?
One of the biggest benefits of submetering isn’t just fair tenant billing—it’s tracking infrastructure losses.
Water that flows through the city’s main meter but never reaches your submeters is water you’re paying for but not recovering the cost of from your tenants. This lost water could be due to aging pipes, underground leaks, or inefficiencies in your property’s plumbing system. Without the right tools, you may not even know it’s happening until the city bill arrives.
By installing a master meter behind the city meter, or by installing a monitor on the city meter, you can compare your total usage to the sum of your submeters, pinpointing leaks and inefficiencies that drive up costs. This insight allows you to take action quickly, reducing wasted water and unnecessary expenses.
Track and Reduce Water Loss With WaterScope®
With Metron’s cloud-based WaterScope software, this analysis is done for you automatically. Our intuitive platform calculates infrastructure loss in real time, presenting the data in an easy-to-interpret graphic so you can catch losses before the city bill arrives, reducing the impact on your bottom line.

Beyond tracking infrastructure loss, WaterScope also offers real-time leak alerts, helping you detect issues both at the master meter level and within individual units. By setting up customizable alerts, property owners and managers can:
- Receive instant notifications when a leak is detected, allowing for fast response and minimal water waste.
- Distinguish between infrastructure leaks and tenant-side leaks, so you can prioritize repairs accordingly.
- Prevent costly surprises on the water bill by identifying abnormal water usage before it escalates.
