There are currently countless actions and measures to make life easier for condominiums in general. One of them is individual water metering per apartment. And today we will understand how this measurement system works and what the advantages are for both the resident and the administrator or condominium administrator.
The individualization of water in condominiums has already become law due to its social and environmental importance. THE Law no. 13,312 of 12 July 2016which modifies article 29 of law no. 11.445/2007, establishing the mandatory system of individual water measurement in new condominiums. This law comes into force from July 2021 (5 years after its publication).
How does personalized water metering work?
Considered the most efficient method of measuring water resources to reduce consumption in buildings, individual water metering is carried out by installing individual meters (per apartment), for monitoring and paying the water bill.
This system can be implemented in old or new condominiums, without constraints. Simply follow the appropriate safety guidelines for the project. There are three types of measurement systems, radio frequency, digital or pulsed reading, with differences in the construction cost and measurement method. It is important to evaluate the companies and the measurement methods they offer.
What are the advantages of the system?
This type of measurement aims to contribute to conscious water consumption and to bring clear benefits to users (residents) and the condominium administrator or administrators, due to the ease and clarity of controlling consumption per apartment. Furthermore, this type of water metering system objectively contributes to environmental sustainability, as it provides a significant reduction in water consumption.
Among the main advantages for residents we can mention:
- Fair payment – the water bill is only charged for what is consumed per apartment, significantly reducing the amount you pay.
- Rational consumption: Personalized metering has been proven to contribute to conscious water consumption.
- Property valuation – this type of measurement makes the apartment more valued on the market.
For condominium administrators and property managers there are advantages such as:
- Easier Control: With custom accounts, billing and default control become easier.
- Leak detection – identifying the origin of a possible leak in a condominium is very simple, since the measurement is individual.
- Time saving – the administrator has more time for other condominium issues, since he does not need to directly control consumption and divide it between bills.

Conclusion
Individual water metering represents a significant advancement in condominium management and sustainability. By measuring water consumption per apartment, this system promotes fairness, efficiency, and environmental responsibility. Each resident becomes aware of their own usage, which naturally encourages more conscious water consumption and helps reduce overall waste.
For administrators, the benefits are equally notable. The system simplifies billing, improves transparency, and reduces potential conflicts over shared utility costs. In addition, individual metering allows for better maintenance control, as leaks or irregularities can be quickly detected and resolved.
Ultimately, adopting this technology is not only a practical solution but also a step toward a more sustainable and equitable future. It aligns with modern environmental standards and reflects a growing awareness of the importance of resource management in collective living spaces.
