Water monitoring & leak detection
Catch abnormal flow before it becomes a larger bill or loss.
Watch night flow, continuous consumption and site-level deviation, then turn a suspicious reading into an assigned investigation with a verified outcome.

Leak detection
Use quiet hours to expose abnormal flow.
When legitimate demand falls, persistent flow becomes easier to see. Volts compares each site with its own operating pattern and shows the evidence before labelling the event a leak.
- Define expected night and idle periods for each site.
- Detect persistent minimum flow, sudden shifts and main-to-submeter imbalance.
- Separate likely leakage from legitimate overnight use, meter faults and missing data.
Distributed sites
Watch every remote meter without driving the route.
Connect compatible water meters across shafts, basements and distributed sites, then manage health and exceptions from one map. Field visits become targeted investigations rather than routine reading rounds.
- Retrofit readable meters with the approved pulse reader or interface.
- Select the LoRaWAN, , cellular or wired path that tests clean at each point.
- Monitor last contact, battery or power state and data gaps for every device.
From reading to repair
Give the suspicious flow an owner and deadline.
Preserve the meter, time window and pattern inside the investigation. The assigned person records what was found and what was fixed; Volts then checks whether flow returned to the agreed range.
- Route the event to the responsible person or service team.
- Attach the location, readings and likely pattern to the task.
- Verify closure against post-repair flow - not only a “done” status.
Start with the meters already closest to the loss.
The survey maps main and submeters, readable outputs, site operating periods and the isolation points available. Detection scope and response are designed around that real estate.
FAQ
Water monitoring without calling every anomaly a leak
How does Volts detect a possible leak?
It evaluates patterns such as persistent quiet-hour flow, a shifted minimum and main-to-submeter imbalance. The result is an investigation signal, not proof of a physical leak.
Do our existing water meters need replacing?
Not if they expose a reliable supported output and remain suitable for the intended use. The survey confirms whether each meter can be read directly, needs a reader or must be replaced.
Can one team watch dozens of sites?
Yes. Sites can share one hierarchy, map and exception view while keeping thresholds and operating periods specific to each location.
What happens after an alarm fires?
Volts can notify, create a task or propose a valve or relay action where one is connected. The selected response, approval and outcome remain recorded from first reading to closure.
Could overnight flow be legitimate?
Yes. Cleaning, production, irrigation, storage refill and occupancy can all create valid night use. Site-specific schedules and context must be reviewed before escalation.
Can Volts close a valve automatically?
Only where a supported actuator and a safe hydraulic design exist, with interlocks and approvals agreed at commissioning.
How quickly will we receive an alert?
Detection time depends on the reading interval and the communications path at that point, so it is agreed per site rather than promised in general.
How do we know the repair worked?
Compare the same quiet-hour or imbalance measure after the repair. Volts can retain the before-and-after readings and reopen the investigation if the abnormal pattern continues.

We will map the site’s quiet hours, meter hierarchy and likely legitimate demand, then show how Volts would turn the remaining abnormal pattern into verified field work.
