How quick is the installation process?

Our smart meters install just as quickly as traditional mechanical meters—they come pre-kitted and ready to use right out of the box. Once installed, the servicer scans a QR code on the unit, fills out a few simple fields, and data starts flowing within 6 hours. End users can create a new account in the RM App to link to their meter from anywhere. Existing users can add as many meters to their account as they'd like.

Is there a price break when ordering multiple meters?

Yes! Discounts start at order quantities of 5 or more meters, with additional breaks at quantities of 25 and 100. The app is also discounted per meter at those quantity thresholds. App prices start at $1 per meter per day.

How does this help with environmental conservation?

We firmly believe that it's impossible to manage what you cannot measure. We've seen many clients reduce their water waste without any adverse impact on their operations simply by being better informed of their water use. Other clients have spotted wasteful (and costly) leaks that dump thousands - and even millions - of gallons of water back into the ground. We've even helped some clients optimize their entire annual irrigation plan by overlaying water usage with annual weather and temperature patterns. The first step to conserving our most critical resources is by measuring the impact we're already having. Only then can we change our behaviors for the better.

What kind of return on investment can I expect?

Our meters are competitively priced with other flow meters. A key difference is that our meters have no moving or mechanical parts and last 10 years, while the typical mechanical (turbine, vortex, etc.) meters only last about 3 years. Our meters also do not require an external power source as each meter operates on a 10-year battery. Hence, our estimated life is limited only by a replaceable battery. Simply swap out the drained battery for a new one and you can expect another 10 years of life. Furthermore, most of our clients see average cost savings of 25% by optimizing water consumption, reducing compliance fees and penalties, and proactively maintaining their infrastructure before small issues turn into big, costly repairs. We find that our app more than pays for itself in the first year of operation.

Non-Revenue Water

Real-Time System Monitoring

The average rural water system experiences 20-30% water loss, or non-revenue water. Resource Monitor helps identify leaks and direct maintenance efforts, reducing water loss by up to 75%. We give your team the precision to:

Dashboard showing total water production of 5,293,429.3 gallons, total consumption of 3,341,076.44 gallons, and a net water production surplus of 1,952,352.86 gallons (36.9%) with a line graph displaying net water used, production, consumption, and precipitation daily from February 15 to March 14.

Water usage dashboard for Prairie View Water Assoc. showing three active residential leak alerts with continuous flow and estimated daily gallon loss, started 6 days ago; includes usage by function bar chart for consumption and production.

Full Water Loss Audit

Resource Monitor turns the meter data you already collect into a full AWWA water loss audit, so you can see how much water you're losing, where, and what it costs.

Built on the standard your regulator already expects

The audit runs on the AWWA M36 and Free Water Audit Software method, so the numbers hold up in front of TCEQ or your board.

Fills itself in from data you already have

Production and consumption come straight from the meters RM reads at your wells and customer connections; you add a handful of system details and RM calculates the rest.

Targeted recommendations based on your system

You get a Non-Revenue Water percentage and a real-versus-apparent breakdown, so you know whether the fix is leak detection or meter replacement.
