If you own or manage an apartment building, condominium, or HOA in California, you know water costs keep climbing. You're probably paying one master water bill and either absorbing the cost, adding a flat fee to rent, or using RUBS to estimate each tenant's share. None of these approaches are fair, and none encourage tenants to conserve.
LeakSense solves this with water submetering installing individual meters for each unit so you can track exactly how much water each tenant uses and bill them accordingly. Our system also includes smart leak detection that monitors water flow 24/7 and alerts you when something looks wrong. If you have automatic shutoff valves installed, LeakSense can stop the water remotely before a small leak becomes a $30,000 insurance claim.
We work with apartment owners managing 20 to 500+ units, HOA boards looking for fair billing and governance reporting, property management companies overseeing portfolios across multiple cities, and commercial property owners with tenants sharing water costs.
Our sweet spot is the property that's too large for consumer devices like Flo by Moen but doesn't need a six-figure commercial building management system. If you've been quoted expensive inline meters requiring major plumbing work, we offer a retrofit-friendly alternative that installs in occupied buildings without tearing up walls.
