At EDM Solutions, we understand that different property types and stakeholders require different metering strategies. That’s why we offer customized prepaid electricity and water metering solutions to suit a wide range of clients across South Africa:
Landlords face ongoing challenges with non-payment, estimated billing, and disputes over utility usage. Our prepaid metering systems allow landlords to recover utility costs upfront, simplify tenant transitions, and ensure no one is left paying for someone else’s consumption.
Sectional title and HOA-managed estates often struggle with bulk metering that leads to unfair cost distribution. EDM Solutions offers individual unit submeters for both water and electricity—enabling each resident to pay only for what they use, reducing complaints and improving transparency.
Municipalities require scalable and tamper-proof utility solutions that promote responsible usage and reduce illegal connections. We supply and install STS-compliant meters with full vending system integration—ideal for subsidized housing, low-income communities, and urban infrastructure upgrades.
Whether building a new residential complex, mixed-use development, or commercial property, developers benefit from our bulk metering supply and installation services. We offer smart meter packages tailored to project scope, timelines, and budget, with support from pre-construction to handover.
