Steam Sub Metering Services
We deliver steam sub metering services that provide accurate, detailed visibility of steam consumption across buildings, plant, and specific processes. By measuring steam usage at key points, organisations can allocate costs fairly, identify leaks and inefficiencies, optimise energy use, and improve system management while supporting sustainability and compliance requirements.
What is steam sub metering?
Steam sub metering measures steam consumption beyond the main supply by monitoring defined areas, tenants, processes, or equipment. Instead of relying on estimates, it provides granular data that shows where steam is being used, when demand changes, and where losses may be occurring.
Steam sub metering supports accurate tenant billing and clearer cost recovery, while helping building owners and operators reduce waste through better understanding of usage patterns. It also helps pinpoint high usage areas and identify specific equipment, such as boilers or heat exchangers, that may require maintenance or upgrades.
Day to day operations
Steam sub metering helps operations teams track consumption patterns, identify abnormal demand, and improve control of steam distribution and plant performance. Granular data highlights inefficiencies and supports optimisation of operating schedules. It also helps pinpoint areas where system losses may be increasing over time.
Billing and cost recovery
Accurate steam data supports fair tenant billing and internal cost allocation based on actual consumption. This reduces reliance on estimates, improves transparency, and lowers the risk of billing disputes. Clear usage records support re billing, budgeting, and stakeholder reporting.
Sustainability and compliance
Steam systems can be a major contributor to energy use and emissions. Sub metering provides reliable data to support sustainability reporting and improvement plans. It also supports compliance with energy codes and performance requirements by providing evidence of consumption and system efficiency.
Our Process
How steam sub metering works
Our approach follows a practical process designed for accuracy, reliability, and minimal disruption.
Site assessment and system review
We assess your steam generation and distribution system, including boilers, headers, and key consumption points. This helps identify where sub metering will provide the most value and where losses or inefficiencies may occur.
Meter selection and specification
We specify steam meters based on pressure, temperature, flow range, and accuracy needs. Correct specification ensures dependable readings and performance in demanding environments.
Installation and commissioning
Meters are installed and commissioned to confirm correct measurement and safe operation. We verify that data capture is consistent and aligned with how your plant operates.
Ongoing visibility and insight
Once installed, steam sub meters provide continuous data for monitoring, reporting, leak detection, and system optimisation. This supports better maintenance planning and ongoing cost reduction.
Our platform
A single platform for complete steam oversight
Our platform brings steam consumption data into one place, giving teams a clear, shared view of performance across sites, systems, and users. It turns raw meter readings into practical insight that supports better control, fair billing, and confident reporting.
Multi utility hosting and multi user access
Manage steam data alongside electricity, gas, water, heat, and other utilities in a single platform. Share access securely across teams while maintaining clear permission controls.
