Water loss combatted through appropriate metering

摘要

"Uncountable litres of water are being lost in South Africa through inefficient metering - and sometimes no metering at all," says Basil Bold, managing director of Sensus South Africa. "The cold, hard fact is that effective conservation and the successful management of water resources is an absolute impossibility without efficient metering." By using more sophisticated meters - and the "smart" metering and recording systems which have become available in recent years - forward-looking municipalities and water utilities are making significant individual contributions to improved water conservation, says Bold.
