Live deployment · Hospitality
Dakota Hotels replaced manual legionella checks with a continuous audit trail, caught leaks in riser cupboards before they reached a guest room, and put energy across the whole estate on one screen. Every site retrofitted in under three days.
Hotel sites
Leak sensors
Temperature monitors
Meters integrated
Six luxury properties, a growing estate, and four problems that get worse with every site added.
Water in riser cupboards and concealed areas could run for days before anyone noticed, risking property damage, a claim, and rooms out of service.
Hot and cold water temperatures checked by hand. Slow, easy to miss, and it is the time back from the team that makes the difference.
Anything fitted had to retrofit into a live hotel with no disruptive works and no impact on the guest.
Every site reporting differently, so nobody could see the estate as a whole or compare one hotel against another.
“The installation was efficient with no disruption, and they've become a trusted operational partner. We'd have no hesitation in recommending them to other hotel operators.”

One wireless network per property, carrying every sensor in the building. Nothing cabled, nothing on the guest WiFi.
Sensors in riser cupboards and other high-risk locations, triggering immediate alerts to the hotel team. Alerts reach Reception by phone call, so a leak is answered in minutes rather than found in days.
Hot and cold water temperatures read continuously, every 20 minutes. Manual checks removed entirely, and the audit trail builds itself with timestamped data ready for the inspector.
Existing pulse and Modbus meters pulled into one view for electricity, gas and water. Where no metering existed, current transformers were retrofitted to reach extra circuits without invasive work.
Live dashboards across all six sites, automated compliance reporting, intelligent alerting, historical analytics for benchmarking, and multi-site oversight from a single login.

Four things Dakota can do now that they could not before.
Multiple leaks identified across different sites at a stage where they would otherwise have gone unnoticed, avoiding repair cost and lost room revenue.
Every manual temperature check replaced by continuous monitoring, with a full legionella audit trail and zero manual effort.
Energy and utility consumption in a single platform, so sites can be benchmarked against each other and waste can be found.
Real-time alerts by phone call to Reception, so teams respond to a leak while it is still a small one.
Independently published
The sensor manufacturer documented the Dakota rollout on their own site, naming the hardware used: EM300-SLD and EM300-MLD leak sensors, TS302 temperature sensors, UG65 gateways and UC100 converters. Same project, told by someone other than us.
A three-month live deployment across your highest-risk wet zones. Fixed price, kit yours to keep, and if we miss a leak you get every penny back.
