Construction & Real Estate

Build Retrofit Monitoring Without Rebuilding the Property.

HARDWARIO supplies configurable field devices and connectivity. Your integration team owns the building workflow, application, data, and customer relationship.

Construction & Real Estate IoT Solutions
The Reality

Common challenges

ESG reporting requirements with no reliable data source

No visibility into tenant energy usage for fair billing

Structural health unknown until visual inspection

Radon levels unmonitored in occupied buildings

Energy waste in common areas going undetected

Manual meter reading across building portfolios

Cost of inaction

A building portfolio without live data turns reporting and safety into guesswork.

Construction and real estate buyers need faster proof: fewer inspections, better tenant billing, and data that supports ESG, safety, and compliance work.

Review your project

Inspection gaps hide structural change

Periodic visual checks leave gaps between site visits. Continuous measurements give engineers more context for their own assessment workflows.

ESG reporting becomes spreadsheet work

Without automated energy and environmental data, teams spend time assembling reports instead of reducing waste or proving progress.

Retrofits get delayed by disruption fears

If monitoring means rewiring, tenants and facilities teams resist. Wireless and non-invasive installs make the project easier to approve.

Use cases

How We Help

Energy Sub-metering

Energy Sub-metering

Track electricity, water, and gas consumption by tenant, floor, or zone. Non-invasive current transformers and pulse counters retrofit to existing meters without rewiring.

Structural Health Monitoring

Structural Health Monitoring

Real-time stability tracking for bridges, retaining walls, and historic buildings. Detect tilt, vibration, and movement before they become safety issues - proven with Statotest.

Indoor Air Quality & Radon

Indoor Air Quality & Radon

Monitor CO₂, temperature, humidity, and radon levels in occupied spaces. CHESTER Radon provides continuous radon measurement for building safety compliance.

Smart Building Integration

Smart Building Integration

Feed environmental and consumption data into building management systems (BMS) for HVAC optimization, comfort management, and occupancy-based control.

Recommended architecture

Your building solution on a retrofit-friendly foundation.

You define the monitoring logic, customer application, and data destination. HARDWARIO supplies configurable field hardware, connectivity, and open integration paths.

01 Your team

Prioritize the asset class

Select the first customer workflow and define its measurement, installation, integration, and ownership boundaries.

02 CHESTER

Collect data without rewiring

Use CHESTER with current transformers, pulse inputs, radon, environmental sensors, or structural sensing depending on the asset and reporting need.

03 EMBER

Cover the property or site

Use CHESTER over cellular or LoRaWAN; add EMBER for a private LoRaWAN network with Ethernet or LTE backhaul.

04 Your application

Feed reporting and operations

Deliver readings to the BMS, reporting workflow, or monitoring application you own, using the supported device interface or Cloud REST API, webhooks, and exports.

Proof points

De-risk the project with monitoring outcomes buyers already understand.

Property and infrastructure teams respond to fewer site visits, better reports, and earlier warnings.

Continuous

measurement data

Give engineers data between site visits without claiming to replace professional inspection.

Retrofit

deployment model

Wireless sensing and non-invasive current measurement can reduce disruption in existing buildings.

REST + webhooks

open integration

Connect supported HARDWARIO data paths to partner-owned BMS, reporting, or monitoring applications.

Customer proof

Results buyers can verify

Statotest

Permanent structural monitoring for bridges and buildings

Before
Infrastructure owners depended on periodic inspections that could miss early movement, deformation, or load changes between site visits.
Deployment
CHESTER units collected structural sensor data from buildings and bridges for integration into the monitoring workflow.
Result
Engineers received continuous trend data and could respond to threshold changes before the next planned inspection.

Products for Construction & Real Estate

CHESTER

CHESTER

CHESTER is our modular industrial IoT platform with cellular IoT, LoRaWAN, and BLE connectivity - battery-powered for years and field-proven down to -40°C in Canadian winters.

EMBER

EMBER

EMBER is our rugged LoRaWAN gateway for private IoT networks - it connects hundreds of sensors indoors and outdoors, with LTE cellular and Ethernet backhaul.

GAUGER

GAUGER

GAUGER is our industrial IoT counter - it counts pulses from PLCs and industrial sensors for OEE and downtime reporting, and retrofits on a DIN rail without disrupting production.

CLOUD

CLOUD

HARDWARIO Cloud handles secure message passing between your devices and systems - with REST API integration, firmware updates over the air (FOTA), and remote device shell.

Deployment path

Prove one customer workflow, then standardize it.

A typical scoped catalog pilot can target live data in 2-4 weeks. Custom sensing, firmware, or certification paths are scoped separately.

Week 1

Asset and reporting review

Confirm the building, bridge, tenant area, meter, radon zone, or structural element to monitor and define the first report or alert goal.

Weeks 2-3

Pilot installation

Install sensors and gateways in one representative area with minimal disruption to tenants, operations, or site work.

Weeks 4-5

Dashboard and export setup

Configure thresholds, ESG exports, BMS or billing integrations, and alert workflows for operations and stakeholders.

After validation

Portfolio rollout

Repeat the validated configuration across buildings, bridges, tenant zones, utility rooms, or construction sites.

FAQ

Buyer questions

Can this be installed in an occupied building?

Yes. The architecture favors wireless sensors, non-invasive current transformers, and pulse inputs so monitoring can be added with minimal disruption.

Does the system support ESG reporting?

Yes. Consumption and environmental data can be exported or integrated into reporting workflows, giving teams real data instead of manual spreadsheet collection.

Can it monitor structural movement?

Yes. HARDWARIO devices can support tilt, vibration, temperature, and other structural inputs, with Statotest proof on bridges and buildings.

What is the best first pilot?

Start with the clearest business pressure: tenant sub-metering, radon compliance, bridge monitoring, critical building movement, or ESG energy reporting.
