Wisconsin property owners are facing growing pressure to manage water more carefully. Between rising utility costs, aging infrastructure, lake and river conservation concerns, and long, cold winters, you can’t afford to guess where your water is going. Submetering gives you clear, unit-level insight so you can control costs, reduce waste, and keep your communities running smoothly.
Wisconsin properties come in all shapes and sizes, and water use looks different in each one. From Milwaukee and Madison apartment communities to small-town duplexes, student housing near college campuses, and manufactured home communities in rural areas, you need a system that fits a wide variety of building styles and plumbing layouts.
Cold, snowy winters and big temperature swings are part of life here. Our meters are designed to perform reliably through freezing conditions, and the over-the-pipe design helps you measure lines that would be difficult or expensive to retrofit with inline meters, especially in older basements and mechanical rooms.
Across Wisconsin, you also see plenty of mixed-use buildings, outbuildings, long service lines, and scattered utility rooms. SimpleSUB’s cellular, clamp-on devices are built to handle those realities with flexible placement and minimal disruption to your existing plumbing, whether you’re in an urban neighborhood or a lakeside community.
A lot of “wireless” systems still depend on on-site Wi-Fi, repeaters, or custom network gear that someone has to set up and maintain. SimpleSUB works differently.
Each meter connects directly to the cellular network and sends data straight to the cloud, with no gateways, bridges, or property-wide Wi-Fi required.
That means:
This setup reduces complexity, cuts down on potential failure points, and helps keep everything running smoothly, whether your property is in a dense neighborhood or a more remote part of the state.
SimpleSUB is designed so your maintenance team, plumber, or preferred contractor can get up and running quickly. The clamp-on hardware mounts on the outside of the pipe, so you’re not cutting into lines or doing major construction just to start measuring.
Once the meters are in place, the web app is straightforward and easy to navigate. You can see usage by unit, review historical trends, and add more meters over time as you expand coverage across the property. You don’t have to overhaul your entire system on day one to start getting value.
SimpleSUB hardware is designed and built in the United States, with a focus on reliability and long-term performance. You’re working with equipment built for real-world conditions, not just lab tests.
When questions come up, you can reach a US-based support team that understands both the product and the realities of managing properties like yours. You get practical help, clear answers, and a partner that speaks your language.
Properties across Wisconsin rely on SimpleSUB for accurate water tracking, faster leak detection, and easier day-to-day water management. Whether you manage an apartment building in Milwaukee, student rentals in a college town, or a manufactured home community in a rural county, SimpleSUB gives you a simple, reliable way to submeter water in Wisconsin.
