Water metering & leak detection
Read existing water meters automatically, bill by building or tenant, and get an alert the moment usage spikes overnight, instead of waiting for the municipal account.
IoT consulting & integration in Durban & KZN: Measure what matters
We find the right sensors, connect them properly and turn the readings into dashboards and alerts you'll actually use.
Water, power, temperature, leaks, space use: most sites run on guesswork and monthly bills. We're vendor-neutral, so we source the hardware that fits your site, test it, and integrate it with the systems you already run.

The right sensors
+A reliable network
+Dashboards that make sense
=Decisions from real data
What we connect
Smart monitoring for schools, estates, nonprofits and businesses
Energy & power monitoring
See where electricity goes by circuit, building or device. Track generator and UPS behaviour through load-shedding, and spot equipment drawing power when it shouldn't.
Environmental monitoring
Temperature, humidity and CO₂ for server rooms, cold rooms, classrooms and storage, with alarms before something spoils, overheats or gets stuffy.
Occupancy & space use
Know which rooms, halls and facilities are actually used, and when, so you can plan cleaning, cooling and bookings around real numbers.
Asset & location tracking
Know where shared equipment, vehicles and outdoor assets are across a large site, from GPS trackers to QR-tagged fixtures.
Alerts & automation
Turn readings into action: notifications by email or message, automatic valve or relay control, and scheduled reports for finance and facilities.
Vendor-neutral by design
We find the system that fits, not the one we're paid to sell
IoT hardware is a crowded market, and most of it doesn't need to be on your site. We research, compare and test before we recommend, then design a system you own and can grow.
- LoRaWAN for campus-wide range on battery-powered sensors
- Wi-Fi and PoE where your network already reaches
- Data kept local, with no per-device cloud subscriptions
- Open integration via MQTT, Modbus and Home Assistant
- Reads existing pulse, Modbus and M-Bus meters
- Segmented from your business network for security
How we work
From a single meter to a full campus
- 01
Assess
We walk the site, list what you want to measure and why, and check what existing meters and network you already have.
- 02
Source
We research and compare hardware across vendors, then put together a specification and costed proposal with no brand lock-in.
- 03
Pilot
We prove it on one meter, room or building first, so you see real data before committing to a full rollout.
- 04
Deploy
We install gateways and sensors and connect them securely to your network, on their own VLAN where appropriate.
- 05
Integrate
We build dashboards, alerts and reports in a platform your team can use, and hand over full documentation.
IoT questions, answered
What is LoRaWAN, and why use it?
LoRaWAN is a low-power, long-range radio network built for sensors. One gateway can cover a whole campus, farm or estate, and battery-powered sensors can run for years without new cabling. We use it where distance and cabling are the problem, and Wi-Fi or PoE where your network already reaches.
Does my data have to go to someone else's cloud?
No. We prefer systems that keep data on your own server or network, with no per-device cloud subscription. If a cloud platform is the better fit, we'll tell you why and what it costs over time.
Can you work with the meters and equipment we already have?
Usually, yes. Many existing water and electricity meters have pulse, Modbus or M-Bus outputs that can be read without replacing the meter. We check what you have before recommending anything new.
Who is IoT consulting for?
Schools, estates, nonprofits, farms and businesses that want real numbers on water, power, temperature or space use. It suits anyone who is tired of guessing, or of finding a leak only when the bill arrives.
Do you only sell one brand?
No. We're vendor-neutral: we research and test hardware for each job and recommend what fits your site, budget and existing systems.
