Water is one of the most precious resources in a housing society. Yet, it is also one of the most mismanaged. From underground tank leakages to inefficient pump schedules, wastage often goes unnoticed until it shows up in skyrocketing utility bills or unexpected shortages. For Resident Welfare Associations (RWAs), accurate water monitoring is no longer […]

Water pumps are essential to residential infrastructure, powering everything from tank refills to garden irrigation. Yet, poor pump selection can lead to noise, water wastage and high maintenance. Understanding the different types of pumps used in water supply helps avoid these issues. With proper planning, societies can ensure consistent performance without overspending on unsuitable systems. […]

Total Dissolved Solids (TDS) is a critical parameter in assessing drinking water quality. Whether it’s sourced from the tap, a purifier, or a borewell, water’s taste, nutritional value, and safety are significantly influenced by its TDS level. Understanding the minimum TDS required for drinking water is vital for maintaining both health and taste standards, and […]

India is facing a severe water crisis. A combination of rapid urbanisation, climate change, and a growing population has created a perfect storm of water shortages. Millions of people across the country are already experiencing the consequences, and the future looks even more uncertain. However, there is hope.  Smart water management solutions are emerging as […]

Access to clean and safe water is a basic human right. As cities grow and infrastructure gets older, it becomes harder to ensure that the water reaching our taps is always safe. Water quality monitoring helps tackle this issue. By regularly checking water for harmful substances or imbalances, we can spot problems early and prevent […]

As water scarcity increases and climate challenges grow, smart water management has become essential. Cities continue to expand, but available resources remain limited. This puts pressure on communities to use water efficiently. Today, many modern cities and smart communities rely on advanced tools to manage water usage better. This guide explores how smart devices and […]

At Planet Smart City, we believe water is one of the most essential yet often underestimated resources in residential communities. Without clear visibility into how much water is stored and consumed, housing societies are left vulnerable to shortages, overflows, rising costs, and inefficient planning. Manual checks and guesswork still dominate many buildings, leaving little room […]

India’s urban landscape is undergoing a seismic transformation. As cities expand at breakneck speed, the demand for reliable, sustainable water infrastructure is quickly outpacing the capacity of traditional systems. This shift isn’t just driven by rapid urbanisation; it’s reinforced by increasing regulatory scrutiny and the pressing need to protect one of our most finite resources. […]

Understanding TDS in Drinking Water: Why It Matters  In today’s smart and health-conscious living environments, ensuring the quality of your drinking water is more essential than ever. One critical but often overlooked parameter is TDS, or Total Dissolved Solids. Whether you’re drinking from the tap, a filter, or a smart water dispenser, understanding the concept […]

As population demands rise and municipal supply fluctuates, societies face mounting challenges in maintaining sustainable water access. Overflow wastage, dry tanks, manual errors, and reactive management often result in operational disruption and resident dissatisfaction. To address these inefficiencies, smart water infrastructure is becoming imperative, and at the forefront of this transformation is Planet Smart City. […]
