Is Water Submetering Right for You?

Receiving one water bill for an entire property has often proved contentious for the owner, as they try to apply a fair part of that bill for each of the individuals renting within the multiunit building. Water submetering systems are the best answers for condominiums, student housing, apartments, military housing and a variety of commercial and industrial operations.

By offering a flexible solution so that an individual is billed for their exact use of water, is a positive step forwards as water submetering systems helps reduce water usage, cut down on unattended leaks and removes verbal or physical hostile behavior between renters within a building, who accuse others of using more than their fair share of water.

The Environment Benefits

Because individuals are due to receive a bill matching their own water usage, they are more likely to repair any leaks and cut down on their water use, to reduce their bill. Any water savings helps the environment and where individuals attend to problems within their plumbing quickly, less water will be wasted and the environment will benefit.

There are many advantages to installing water submetering systems within multiunit buildings. At the top of the list is the ability for both the building owner and the individuals to budget carefully for their water use, so that their overall financial arrangements are more easily understood.

Where an individual’s use of water can be monitored by smart meters, this can quickly show where a leak has developed, even if not noticed by the renter of the unit, as the consumption will dramatically increase, especially when compared to the standard use.

We can provide a high level of customer service to ensure that the residents of the multiuse building will receive individual care, rather than only dealing with the building owner. This also helps each individual gain access to their account online, rather than having to ask the properties manager for detailed information.
