Smart Metering provides tailored water and power metering and billing solutions for strata managers, owners corporations, property managers and developers, in both new and existing buildings.
Metering and Billing Solutions
- Property Management Billing: we supply meter data, allowing property managers to invoice residents directly on a user-pays basis.
- Direct Resident Billing: we manage the building's water account and invoice each apartment for its actual usage, or bill and collect on behalf of the owners corporation, whichever suits your building and state.
- Developer Solutions: for architects and property developers, we design, supply, install, and manage metering and billing for each unit in multi-tenant buildings.
Smart Metering Direct Resident Billing
Simplify utility management with our direct resident billing service. We handle monthly billing for water, hot water and power, taking the time, cost and hassle off owners corporations and strata managers, at a low ongoing cost: either a monthly service fee or an equipment charge that recovers the installation over a fixed term, depending on the funding model you choose.
- Equipment Supply and Installation: we retrofit smart power and water meters onsite.
- Utility Bill Management: we receive the building's water utility invoice, manage it, and bill each apartment for its metered share.
- Daily Consumption Tracking: using our cloud-based platform, we track daily power and water usage and bill residents based on actual consumption.
- Transparent Charges: residents pay only for their actual usage, passed through at the utility's rate, plus a small fixed service fee.
Property Management Billing Solutions
Simplify utility management with accurate, efficient, and easy-to-use billing tools for strata and property managers.
- Accurate Data and Real-Time Tracking: we provide individual metering data through our cloud-based platform, enabling real-time access and direct invoicing from your central office.
- Smart Equipment Installation: our team supplies and installs advanced smart water and power meters onsite, ensuring seamless integration with your strata or property management system.
- Streamlined Operations: eliminate manual meter readings, reduce errors, and save time with automated daily consumption tracking and efficient billing processes.
Property Developers
Collaborate with Smart Metering to equip your projects with advanced, future-ready metering systems.
We work with your hydraulic and electrical consultants at design stage so meters, comms and access are built in, not retrofitted.
- Customised Design and Installation: we design, supply, and install smart power and water metering systems tailored to your building's needs, ensuring seamless integration and efficiency.
- Flexible Handover Options: choose between receiving metering data for developer or property manager use, or let us manage direct resident billing for a hassle-free solution.
Bulk hot water
Many Australian apartment buildings have a central hot water plant. We meter hot water at each apartment and bill it with cold water, so residents get one invoice and the owners corporation stops carrying the gas or electricity cost through levies.
