LeakSense provides comprehensive installation services for smart water submetering and leak detection systems throughout California. Our licensed, insured technicians specialize in multifamily properties, ensuring code-compliant installations with minimal disruption to residents and property operations.
California Title 24 water metering requirements mandate specific installation standards for new construction and major retrofits. LeakSense installation teams are trained and certified in Title 24 compliance, ensuring your property meets all current California Energy Commission (CEC) building performance standards and CPUC submetering regulations.
Our installation process begins with a comprehensive site assessment, reviewing existing plumbing infrastructure, identifying optimal meter placement locations, and designing a network topology that ensures reliable data transmission throughout your property. We coordinate with property management to schedule installations during convenient times, minimizing resident inconvenience.
All installation personnel are licensed plumbers with specialized training in IoT submetering technology and California code compliance.
technology eliminates extensive wiring, reducing installation time to 45-60 minutes per unit without building-wide water shutdowns.
A typical 100-unit property installation is completed within 7-10 business days, with our crews installing 10-15 units per day. Each unit installation includes flow meter mounting, motorized shutoff valve integration, gateway configuration, system testing, and documentation photography for compliance records.
For occupied buildings, we provide advance notice to residents, coordinate access schedules with property management, and offer evening or weekend installations when needed. Our technicians are background-checked, uniformed, and trained in professional resident interaction to ensure a positive experience.
Pre-installation survey identifying optimal meter locations, plumbing access points, and network design with signal strength mapping.
Flow meters, motorized shutoff valves, gateways, and battery backup units installed at each unit and common area connection.
Network setup, sensor pairing, baseline calibration, alert threshold configuration, and integration with property management software.

Installation doesn't end when our technicians leave. LeakSense provides comprehensive post-installation support including:
New Construction: For properties under development, LeakSense coordinates with general contractors and plumbing subcontractors to integrate submetering infrastructure during the rough-in phase. This approach offers the most flexibility in meter placement and minimizes visible hardware in finished units.
Retrofit Projects: Existing buildings present unique challenges including varied plumbing configurations, occupied units, and accessibility constraints. Our retrofit specialists excel at adapting to site conditions, working around existing infrastructure, and maintaining resident satisfaction during installation.
LeakSense installation services are available throughout California, with dedicated teams serving major metropolitan areas including Los Angeles, San Diego, San Francisco Bay Area, Sacramento, Orange County, Inland Empire, and Central Valley regions.
