Toowoomba Regional Council is offering property owners across the region the chance to be the first to use new smart water meter technology.<\/p>\n

Cr Rebecca Vonhoff said Council was calling for volunteers to be part of the initial rollout of the meters.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019re putting together a group of 5000 property owners initially to help fine-tune how the system will work,\u201d Cr Vonhoff said.<\/p>\n

\u201cIdeally we\u2019ll have a mixture of domestic and commercial customers from across the region.\u201d<\/p>\n

Cr Vonhoff said the volunteers were needed even though Council would directly contact 5000 property owners.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cWe would like domestic and commercial water users to be part of the initial rollout and it will be a great opportunity to see first-hand the benefits smart water meters will bring,\u201d Cr Vonhoff said.<\/p>\n

\u201cFor property owners, the meters will provide close to real-time readings, with a web portal and\/or an app to check usage. This means they will be able to identify high consumption and possible water leaks and potentially save money and water.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe meters will provide Council with advanced analytics to help balance the entire water system and operate a more efficient network. The system will also help with the early detection of leaks and breaks in the network.\u201d<\/p>\n
