Where are electricity meters, water meters and heat meters cost-effective and easy to manage?

Your question should be answered in two parts.

1, the problem of high cost performance.

Water meters should be made in Zhejiang, with high cost performance, which are basically available all over the country, with little price difference. There are nearly 40 manufacturers of heat meters in Shandong Province, which should be the most cost-effective. Some of them are produced in the south, but the quality is average.

2. Problems that are easy to manage

Easy to manage. My understanding is that it is convenient to charge for meter reading. If I understand correctly, this has nothing to do with the manufacturer. The most important thing is choice, so don't choose a smart water meter unless your water meter is installed outdoors. If it is installed in the family bathroom, it is best not to consider the problem of intelligent management, because the use environment of the water meter is very poor, and the line part can hardly pass the customs. If installed outdoors, you can choose a water meter with power carrier communication function, which saves wiring investment and has low operating cost.

As for electric meters and heat meters, the general use environment is better, and it is better to manage electric meters in advance. The heat meter must be selected with M-BUS communication function, and the communication line is connected externally, otherwise it will be very troublesome in the future. Two lines are arranged for each power supply, so that data can be uploaded to the computer through M-BUS. The key is that M-BUS does not consume the battery power of the heat meter during communication. Reading a heat meter is another hard work.

It is suggested that these three meters should be managed centrally by power carriers, with less wiring and less investment.
