Inform water temperature monitoring

Monitoring water temperatures are key to water safety and will help to minimise the growth of waterborne pathogens, reducing the risk of infection such as legionella. Inform is a highly intelligent digital solution that has been designed to monitor, maintain and provide data on assets within an organisation. Shifting to digital operations and management can have huge benefits within a building.

System box

Traditional water monitoring methods can pose challenges, from human error in data collection to site access issues. These issues could potentially lead to non-conformance and health risks within hot and cold water systems where optimum temperatures for microbial growth and stagnation may occur. By integrating intelligent solutions such as the Inform system box and software to your building’s assets you can reduce travel costs, reduce on-site disruption and ensure regular and accurate service checks.

Online software

Inform is powered by an intelligent online data management system with a user-friendly dashboard that is accessible on any device. The dashboard consists of 6 key functions that include new alerts, active alerts, closed alerts, administration, reports and information upload functionality. Once the system has been installed by a trained professional you will receive log in details to the online dashboard to manage and report on all assets.

How it works

The Inform system utilises Narrowband IoT Low Power Wide Area Technologies (LPWA) which provides increased building penetration and ensures excellent communication in dense urban settings and extremely remote areas. Inform sensors constantly monitor the temperature of a water system, profiling and providing data to the central management system that alerts of any potential risks. The devices are easy to install onto pipework, and the software is intuitive and designed for easy water temperature monitoring.

Reporting

Reporting on the Inform platform is clear and simple to use, making risk assessment and asset management easier than ever before. The reporting is split into two clear sections; Alerts and Temperatures, allowing you to monitor and manage any possible risks at the click of a button. Reports can exported into a CSV file to easily identify and cross reference historical data.
