Domestic Water and Demand Management
Smart domestic water metering and demand management tools are a distinct segment of smart water. This chapter considers domestic smart metering from both a customer and a utility perspective. It then presents the domestic smart water metering at the household level. There are three general types of water meter. They are traditional mechanical meter, automated meter reading (AMR) and advanced metering infrastructure (AMI). Domestic appliances are available for four functions; to monitor water consumption, to alert owners of water‐related risks, for water harvesting and reuse, and for managing and minimising water use. There have been a number of local, national and international labelling schemes for domestic and commercial water efficient appliances. The chapter presents three approaches. The first concentrates on approving a specific product as being water efficient. The second sets levels of water efficiency which products can be classified within. A third sets mandatory or voluntary efficiency standards.
