The past year has been hard for everyone including those who own or manage buildings. We hope that the new Building Insights Dashboard features released this year will help make it easier to take care of your buildings, manage water usage more cost effectively and minimize the risk of water damage.

Property tags

Now you can organize your properties using flexible tags to help you better analyze performance and operating expenses of groups of assets. Organize by region, by property size, whether irrigation lines exist, etc. Tags also unlock future functionality like the new Water Reports (see below).

How to use

‍ Properties Tab > Click/Tap on "<" on the left hand side. Click “+” to create a new tag.

‍

Fleet dash

Prioritize property issues from most to least urgent. This new feature allows you to triage what should be actioned immediately and what can wait.

How to use

Dash Tab

‍

Event notes and prioritization

Document events by making notes of what happened, what caused it, and who fixed it. Learn from incidents and work to prevent them from happening in the future. The priority you set for each note is shown in the Fleet Dash.

How to use

Events Tab > Click/Tap "Add Note" > Type your note and select the priority

‍

Event thresholds: water sensors

Many customers have asked for this feature and now we've delivered. Override the global default threshold for any water sensor, giving you great flexibility across your portfolio.

How to use

Sensors Tab > Click/Tap on name of sensor > Modify settings under Water Usage Thresholds & Alerts

‍

Event thresholds: HVAC

Custom thresholds are also available for HVAC Sensors.

How to use

Sensors Tab > Click/Tap on name of sensor > Modify settings under Notifications

Flood page

Updates to the Flood page allow you to see: how many flood pucks are on the property, whether they are dry or not, when any recent flood occurred, and how long that flood lasted.

How to use

Properties Tab > Click/Tap name of property > Click/Tap tile with "Flood" at the top

Tiered water rates

Track water consumption and sewage/waste water costs separately, include fixed costs, and input different rates based on how much water is used per month. All of these new data points make planning for water costs much easier.

How to use

Property Settings > Click/Tap Water Costs > Click/Tap Tiered Rates

‍

Water reports

Managing water costs is faster and easier with Water Reports. See total cost compared to either the previous period or the previous year, best performer and worst performer for several metrics, and if there has been any leaks, the actual cost and projected annual cost of those leaks.

Note:

Water Reports are currently available as a free Premium Beta. To request early access to Water Reports, please fill out the form.

How to use

Reports Tab > Select options from drop down menus > Run report
