Benefits of Submetering

  • Cost Savings: Reduce energy costs through accurate monitoring and effective usage management.
  • Transparency: Clear, fair billing based on actual consumption.
  • Simplified Billing: Our system automates individual utility charge calculations and delivers a streamlined, accurate billing process.
  • Sustainability: Strengthen environmental stewardship by optimizing energy use.

  • Improved Infrastructure: In some cases, your project may involve upgrades to the building’s infrastructure resulting in permanent improvements that enhance overall property value.

  • Long-Term Benefit: A submetering system provides value well beyond the current year, with meters and infrastructure designed to last many years—often a decade or more.
  • Increases Property Value: Accurate, tenant-specific billing increases a property’s net operating income (NOI), which directly enhances its market value. Submetering is a functional upgrade that improves both building performance and financial results.
  • Depreciation: Since it is a capital expenditure, the cost of the submetering system must be capitalized and depreciated over its useful life, spreading the expense across several years for tax and accounting purposes.

FAQs

Submetering is a system that uses individual meters to measure utility consumption for each unit within a multifamily, commercial, or mixed-use property. By installing dedicated meters in each unit or tenant space, property owners, landlords, and managers can accurately track usage and allocate utility costs based on actual consumption.

Submetering saves money by ensuring accurate billing of each unit’s utility consumption. Without submetering, individual usage is often not reflected fairly, leaving property owners to cover a portion of tenants’ utility costs. By tracking actual consumption per unit, submetering ensures each tenant pays only for what they use, protecting owners from overpaying.

Submeter installation involves assessing the property’s utility systems, selecting meters appropriate for the property, and connecting them to ensure accurate readings. The process is complex and requires a licensed professional to perform the installation.

Meter readings are performed remotely and automatically through a secure network, enabling accurate billing, detailed daily and hourly usage analysis, and real-time alerts for anomalies or unusual consumption.

All meter readings are collected remotely and imported into our software, which automatically calculates each tenant’s utility costs based on actual consumption. Bills are then generated and delivered monthly to building staff or property management.
