What we do

Our COSIE homes IoT environmental sensors provide social housing with the confidence that they are providing warm, healthy, and efficient homes through intelligent monitoring. These discreet home devices monitor environmental conditions to deliver property performance data and early notification of potential issues, without any user interaction, Wi-Fi or mains power and are installed in seconds.

 

What we can help you with

  1. Quick, easy and low-cost Identification of homes with damp and mould issues to support a proactive, rather than reactive, approach
  2. Finding the causes of damp and mould through continuous data collection
  3. Ensuring remedial works are having the desired impact for tenant satisfaction

Our solution

  1. Identification of homes with damp and mould issues - We are providing housing management teams with key insights to help identify those homes most at risk of damp and mould, whilst reducing the numbers of time-consuming and costly snapshot surveys.
  2. Finding the causes of damp and mould - Additionally, these sensors can be used after a problem is identified to look at patterns in the temperature and humidity.
  3. Ensuring remedial works are having the desired impact - after remedial works these sensors can ensure providerss that improvements have been made and the original issues have been solved.

Benefits of working with us

The cost of the sensors and repair works (if they are even needed) is greatly lower than the cost of remedial works when damp and mould have spread throughout a property. Extensive data paints a clearer picture of a property, making it easier to identify the cause of the damp and mould and, therefore, easier to resolve. Indirect benefits also include improved health and well-being of tenants, reduced pressure on the NHS from damp and mould-related illnesses and a much greater level of tenant satisfaction.

Case study - Kingston Council Upon Thames

Kingston Council addressed damp and mould issues proactively using IoTSG's COSIE homes sensors. The continuous data helped identify problem properties, enabling timely interventions and assessing the impact of improvements, fostering a proactive approach for housing teams. This project has now been shortlisted for a Housing Technology Award 2024.


"These sensors were warmly welcomed to nip problems in the bud before they happened, but also to give us a bigger understanding of what is going on inside properties. The sensors enabled us to identify properties with critical cold and potential for mould, allowing them to go and talk to residents and offer any available support.
It's a wonderful bit of kit; fantastic!"

David Hill - Accommodation Manager, The Royal Borough of Kingston Upon Thames
