Whether you're a utility chasing non-revenue water, a municipality reporting to the regulator, a mine managing process and discharge water, or a factory monitoring effluent, the questions are the same: how much, what quality, and can you prove it? addanode monitors flow, pressure, level and quality across your network in real time, finds the water you're losing, and automates the compliance reporting DWS and your auditors expect — on infrastructure built for South African power and connectivity.
Cut non-revenue water, protect billing revenue, and run reticulation on live data instead of monthly meter reads. South African municipalities lose a large share of supply to leaks, theft and faulty meters — visibility is the first step to recovering it.
Non-revenue water guide →Monitor process water, dewatering, tailings return and discharge — and prove your discharge quality against your water-use licence, continuously, without manual sampling rounds.
DWS compliance guide →Track intake, process and effluent quality, catch a breach before it becomes a reportable incident, and turn compliance into a dashboard and an export rather than a monthly scramble.
See a water case study →Boreholes, reservoirs, river gauges and pump stations far from power and signal — monitored on solar and low-power radio, buffering through load shedding so you stop driving out to check.
Solar remote monitoring →Bulk and zone flow, reservoir and tank levels, pressure zones and pump status — the basis for balancing the network and finding losses.
pH, turbidity, conductivity, dissolved oxygen, COD, TDS and temperature — for potable, process and effluent water.
Continuous logging and automated reports aligned to DWS effluent and water-use licence conditions — defensible, exportable, audit-ready.
Learn more →District metering areas (DMAs), minimum-night-flow analysis and consumption reconciliation to localise where water — and revenue — is disappearing.
Learn more →Sudden flow spikes or pressure drops become an alert in hours, not a problem found weeks later on a flooded road.
Solar-powered, low-power sensing over LoRaWAN / NB-IoT / 4G with edge buffering — so distance and load shedding aren't barriers.
Learn more →Zone the network, rank DMAs by night flow, fix the worst-leaking zone first, then prove the recovery — turning invisible losses into a prioritised work list.
How smart metering cuts losses →Log every licence parameter continuously and generate the reports the regulator expects, with alerts before a parameter drifts out of range.
Effluent & DWS compliance →Continuous quality sensing with predictive maintenance of filters and instant breach alerts — proven trust, powered by data.
Smart Water Shop case study →Boreholes, reservoirs and pump stations that report their own level, flow and status — off-grid on solar, continuous through outages.
Solar-powered monitoring →Flow, level, pressure and quality sensors at the points that matter — integrated with your existing meters and instruments, not a rip-and-replace.
Edge devices log locally and sync when power and connectivity return, so a night-flow record is never lost to load shedding.
One dashboard for quantity, quality and compliance, with threshold alerts to WhatsApp or email the moment something moves.
Automated compliance exports and prioritised leak/quality work lists — data that drives an action, not just a chart.
It all runs on the in-house addaNet platform — so your water data can sit alongside energy, asset and production data in one operational picture.
Engineered for the conditions you actually operate in: edge buffering and solar so monitoring survives load shedding and reaches off-grid sites; connectivity matched to the site (LoRaWAN, NB-IoT, 4G); compliance aligned to DWS and water-use licences; and because we build both the hardware and the software in-house and support it locally, we scope for the loss or the licence that matters most — and start where it pays back fastest.
Most water projects are driven by one of two things: a compliance deadline, or water you're losing and can't locate. Here's how we approach both.
