Show Notes
Cape Town introduces smart water meters, replacing old mechanical ones, to address billing issues and provide accurate usage data via a city app. While tenants worry about potential extra costs, city officials highlight benefits like reduced human errors, early leak detection, and long-lasting meters with anti-tampering features. Free installation, with minor disruptions, is expected, and residents are advised to verify contractors IDs and uniforms. Some residents look forward to monitoring usage for fairer water management.
