In the world of real estate management, efficiency, sustainability and customer satisfaction are at the forefront. But what is the best way to unite this triumvirate? There are many tools that can help you manage your real estate portfolio. One of them is the Smartvatten water management service.
But what exactly is Smartvatten, and why should you consider it for your real estate business?
What is Smartvatten?
Smartvatten is the water efficiency specialist from Finland. With our remote water monitoring service for real estate, we monitor, measure and analyze water consumption and detect leaks in real time. We digitize the water consumption of your property portfolio's water meters and bundle all information clearly in our cloud-based Smartvatten Hub portal. This allows property owners to track water consumption in real time, detect potential leaks immediately and prevent major damage to their property.
What problems does Smartvatten solve?
Low data quality:
Most water meters are still read manually or semi-automatically, often monthly, quarterly or annually. This leads to lower data quality and makes it difficult to accurately analyze water consumption and locate leaks.
Different metering systems:
Many property portfolios contain a mixture of different types of water meters, both analog and digital. This can lead to significant challenges in collecting consistent and comparable data. In addition, replacing water meters is a complicated and costly undertaking. With our solution, it doesn't matter what type of water meters you have in your properties. Whether analog, digital or radio meters. With Smartvatten, all water meters can be read and evaluated online.
Lack of insight:
In order to understand the water efficiency of our buildings and their impact on costs and CO2 emissions, it is crucial to interpret the data from different water meters in a consistent way. However, the variety of meters and their different alarms make this interpretation difficult. A consistent approach to evaluating and responding to the data is essential to promptly identify and address leaks or unusual consumption patterns.
