Yes. Smart meters don't use electricity from the property because they are powered by long-lasting batteries (10+ years). Most smart meters use a lithium battery. Basically, smart water meters are gadgets that monitor your water usage automatically and have the ability to transmit data to your water provider. There are two varieties:

  1. AMR (Automated Meter Reading) meters:

    When a company representative drives or walks by, these are scanned by transmitting data to a specific gadget.

  2. AMI (Advanced Metering Infrastructure) meters:

    Throughout the day, this meter uses a secure connection to automatically submit readings to the water company. Customers can use an app or the water company's website to check their water usage with AMI meters, which can assist in identifying leaks and improving usage management.

Get in touch with your water company if you have any issues or think there may be a leak.

Yes. To reply to your question about does a smart water meter need electricity, although smart water meters don't utilise the electricity in your house, they do require power. Rather than being directly connected to the main power grid, it usually comes from a long-lasting internal battery. However, smart water meters require a power supply to run their sensors, display, and communication module.

They use a battery for the following reasons:

  1. Precise bills.

  2. Operates amid blackouts.

  3. To enable bill reading from any location.

  4. Meter readers are not necessary.

  5. Easy installation with no wiring.

I hope you found this information helpful.
