Freemans Bay Townhouses

Freemans Bay, Auckland, New Zealand · 4 lots

The Freemans Bay townhouses behind a hedge, Auckland

The problem

Previously Watercare (Auckland's water utility) provided one main water meter for all four townhouses and sent an evenly split invoice to each owner, so all owners paid exactly the same amount regardless of how much water they individually used.

What we did

Smart Metering installed individual smart sub-meters at each property. Because the incoming water lines were in difficult to access locations, only Smart Metering could provide automated daily water meter readings that will never require a manual read.
