Overview

Weber Properties, a 92-unit mobile home community operating on a well system, was losing thousands of gallons of water each day to undetected leaks and running toilets. Without real-time monitoring, the team had no visibility into where or when water waste was occurring.

By implementing SimpleSUB Water’s over-the-pipe submetering technology, Weber Properties:

  • Detected and stopped leaks that wasted over 1,000 gallons per day
  • Reduced unnecessary water consumption and system strain
  • Eliminated freezing and breakage risks from traditional meters
“For mobile home communities facing leak detection challenges and harsh weather conditions, SimpleSUB delivers reliable monitoring and major cost savings without invasive installation.” — Owner, Weber Properties

Customer Profile

Customer: Weber Properties

The Problem: Leaks, Waste, and Weather-Related Meter Failures

Operating a private well system for 92 homes, Weber Properties struggled to maintain visibility over water usage. Without smart meters, leaks and overuse went unnoticed for days or even weeks which causedexcessive water loss and unnecessary costs.

In some cases, a single running toilet wasted more than 1,000 gallons per day.

Traditional meters also posed a major challenge: they were prone to freezing and breaking during extreme weather, creating costly maintenance and reliability concerns.

The owners needed a solution that was both durable and data-driven—a way to track consumption, detect leaks early, and safeguard their water infrastructure without disrupting residents.

The Solution: Over-the-Pipe Submetering with Real-Time Insight

Weber Properties partnered with SimpleSUB Water to install its innovative over-the-pipe, clamp-on submetering system. The technology offered a non-invasive, freeze-proof design and real-time visibility into individual unit usage without shutting off water or digging into existing lines.

Why SimpleSUB Water?

  • Over-the-Pipe Design: Eliminated freezing and breakage risks common in traditional meters.
  • Fast, Non-Disruptive Installation: The entire setup was completed quickly, with no impact on residents.
  • Real-Time Monitoring: Continuous data allowed management to detect leaks, track usage trends, and take immediate action.

SimpleSUB’s low-flow alerts also proved crucial in catching hidden leaks such as frozen lines before they caused damage. The result was a seamless rollout and an immediate boost in operational efficiency.

Results: From Daily Waste to Data-Driven Efficiency

Within weeks of implementation, Weber Properties began seeing measurable improvements.

  • Leak Detection: Identified excessive water use, including individual units wasting over 1,000 gallons per day.
  • Reduced Consumption: After addressing leaks and inefficiencies, overall usage normalized and stabilized.
  • Improved Reliability: Over-the-pipe meters eliminated freezing and breakage issues, ensuring year-round dependability.
  • Operational Confidence: Real-time monitoring gave management peace of mind and control over water use for the first time.
“SimpleSUB Water has been an easy solution to implement and helps us catch problems before they escalate into costly disasters.”— Owner, Weber Properties

Stop Hidden Leaks and Freeze Damage Before They Drain Your Budget

At Weber Properties, a 92-unit mobile home community, daily leaks and freezing meters were wasting over 1,000 gallons of water per day and driving up costs. After installing SimpleSUB Water, the team gained real-time visibility, automated leak detection, and freeze-proof performance, all without digging or disrupting residents. Within weeks, usage stabilized, maintenance costs dropped, and management finally had full control over water efficiency. If your community faces similar leak detection or weather-related challenges, SimpleSUB delivers the data, durability, and peace of mind you need.
