Enhance your rainwater harvesting systems with online monitoring and a graphic interface.
WaterGroup Pty Ltd is pleased to announce that it has developed an advanced online monitoring system with a user-friendly graphic interface for rainwater harvesting and tank storage systems. It allows users to ensure that their tank systems work as expected.
From doing hundreds of site water use assessments (or water audits), WaterGroup has found that over 70 per cent of existing rainwater harvesting systems don’t work at all, or, if they do, they work well below their capacity. Worst, the owners often don’t even know about it because there is no monitoring.
The company aims to change that with this innovation.
The Challenge
WaterGroup’s clients seek to improve the visibility and performance of their rainwater harvesting systems and water storage tanks. Currently, many sites operate sub-optimally due to a lack of monitoring, leading to inefficiencies that often go unnoticed for months, if not years.
Our Solution
WaterGroup, in partnership with UtiliOS, a SaaS-based online provider of smart metering data, offers an expanded service leading to a system that includes:
-
Site Inspections and System Assessments
- Comprehensive inspections of all sites and systems.
- Detailed reports summarising required site works for optimal monitoring.
-
Main Meter Logging
- Status: Often already complete.
-
Tank Water Supply Line Metering and Logging
- Status: A meter may exist, but logging is often missing.
-
Tank Water Tank Top-Up Metering and Logging
- Status: Usually, neither a meter nor logging exists.
-
Tank Level Monitoring
- Status: A (manual) level probe may exist, but logging is often missing.

By enhancing rainwater harvesting systems with smart monitoring, WaterGroup and UtiliOS aim to improve system efficiency, maximise water savings, and ensure sustainable water management practices. This partnership combines WaterGroup’s expertise in water management and UtiliOS’ innovative technology to deliver a comprehensive solution tailored to our clients’ needs.
