Differences between entered cumulative readings only. A high value is a review flag, not proof of a leak. Check units, meter resets and estimated readings.

    How to use Water Meter Reading Auditor

    1. Explore the worked example. Use dated cumulative readings to compare daily usage between intervals and flag an entered usage threshold.
    2. Replace the meter readings with your own entries. Set review above · m³/day.
    3. Choose “Analyze the readings”. Review meter intervals, then compare the visual overview with the detailed tables.
    4. Capture alternative scenarios, download a reusable project and export the selected table or a report when you are ready.

    A starting point

    Use dated cumulative readings to compare daily usage between intervals and flag an entered usage threshold. The example is illustrative and can be replaced.

    Know what you are comparing

    Does a flagged interval prove there is a leak?

    No. A flag only compares the entered interval usage with your threshold. Meter rollovers, incorrect entries and legitimate changes in consumption need separate investigation.

    Files, privacy & saving

    Calculations run locally in a browser worker. Input CSV files use the column names in the downloadable template and keep your current settings. Projects restore inputs and up to four scenarios. Imports are limited to 1 MiB and 100 entries. There is no automatic saving. Public pages include advertising and optional analytics; see our privacy policy.

    CSV exports contain the entire selected table. JSON and printable HTML reports include all result tables; open the report and use your browser’s Print command for PDF.

    Questions & answers

    Does a flagged interval prove there is a leak?

    No. A flag only compares the entered interval usage with your threshold. Meter rollovers, incorrect entries and legitimate changes in consumption need separate investigation.

    Can I compare and save alternative plans?

    Yes. Capture up to four calculated scenarios, restore their inputs and save them in a project JSON file. There is no automatic saving.

    How do I bring in my own entries?

    Download the CSV template, retain its column names and replace the example rows. Imports are limited to 100 entries and 1 MiB. A saved project also restores settings.

    What should I check before using the result?

    Differences between entered cumulative readings only. A high value is a review flag, not proof of a leak. Check units, meter resets and estimated readings.
