"Water usage can be over $50k in a building, and making sure that you're not having leaks in perpetuity is a huge, huge win."

Challenge
Expensive after-hours heating issues strained building budgets
Using water bills to identify leaks and overuse is a slow and expensive process to find water issues — plus, once you do find the problem, you’ve already spent a ton of money on overuse. For utilities that bill quarterly (like it NYC), that can equate to tens of thousands of dollars spent on extra water before you notice a problem. Harlem Property Management sought a more efficient leak-detection system — one that could spot leaks before they’d start inflating bills.
Solution
Runwise optimized fuel use and reduced costly emergency calls
Harlem Property Management implemented Runwise’s water monitoring and leak detection device, which is designed to provide real-time monitoring of water usage and send a notification when there’s an unexpected increase in water consumption.
Results
$125K saved and 25% less fuel used across buildings
Runwise’s real-time alerts have allowed management to detect leaks at their onset, ensuring water usage is both efficient and sustainable. The shift from reactive to preventative maintenance has resulted in lower water bills and fewer costly incidents of building maintenance.
Addressing smaller issues quickly allows buildings to prevent expensive problems. By leveraging real-time monitoring and alerts, building owners and property managers under Harlem Property Management are positioned one step ahead, achieving lower bills and better savings.
