A standard submeter tells you how much water a whole unit used. Fixture-level metering goes a layer deeper: a micrometer on each toilet, shower, sink, and appliance you choose measures use where it happens - so you know exactly what's wasting water, not just that something is. DrizzleX is built entirely on this approach.

By measuring at the fixture instead of the pipe. Most submetering needs a dedicated water main to each unit - which older multifamily buildings don't have. DrizzleX micrometers install directly on fixtures and measure use where it happens, then aggregate it into a unit-level total. No re-piping, no main required.

Both - the same fixture-level data does two jobs. It catches leaks and overuse the moment they start, and it gives you submeter-grade consumption data - backed by minute-by-minute measurement - for billing tenants on actual use. Submit it to your billing partner, or run billing in-house, easily and economically.

A full apartment can be outfitted in about 15 minutes by your own maintenance team - no plumber, no permits, no pipe cutting, no calibration. Each micrometer is sized to your exact piping and installs in any position. Easy enough that your own team can handle it, though installation support is available.

Your team gets an alert naming the unit, the fixture, and the issue, usually before anyone in the building notices anything. Monitoring runs minute by minute, so a running toilet or a hidden leak is flagged when it starts - not when the bill arrives.

Pricing depends on your property - number of units, fixtures covered, and building layout - which is why we quote per property. Across published case studies, owners cut consumption 20-40% or more, with the hardware paying for itself in 2 to 8 months depending on fixture scope and local water and sewer rates.
