Submetering

Phoenix Utility Submetering

Help Your Property Save Money & Reduce Consumption

Many multi-family residential, multi-tenant commercial, and other multi-purpose properties struggle with a problem: water consumption. Water utility bills are usually split equally among every tenant on each water meter, and that can be unfair to those who aren’t using nearly as much water as others. 

If you want to really cut down on water costs, adopting a submetering policy that holds every tenant accountable for the cost of the water that they consume is the best decision. At Phoenix Water Solutions, we make that happen as one of the valley’s local leaders in utility submetering services.

What Is Submetering?

It isn’t all that uncommon for each address to have one water utility meter installed. However, it also isn’t all that uncommon for multiple tenants to exist within that one address. Every tenant has different water consumption levels, so splitting costs evenly encourages abuse and waste while also penalizing those who make water-wise decisions. 

Submetering does away with this by holding everyone responsible for the water they use and distributing costs fairly. Submetering is the process of installing additional meters inside the main utility meter in order to further break down how much water is being used by each tenant. 

For example, if an apartment building has four units on the same meter, submetering would allow you to determine exactly how much water each apartment used. That way all tenants don’t have to pay for the water-wasting habits of one particular tenant and that one tenant can be held responsible for their decisions.

Why Submeter?

Reducing domestic water usage is impossible without accountability. Submetering allows communities to promote individual responsibility and ensure that most of the community is not overpaying for a few residents who choose to consume more water. 

Submetering Promotes stability in communities and brings much more value than alternative methods to reduce consumers’ expenses and bring more revenue into the property. 

Here are just a few reasons to invest in submetering:

  • Reduce consumption: When water charges aren’t spread out, people are more likely to conserve and save. Submetering has been shown to reduce water consumption in multi-tenant properties by as much as 40%.
  • Reduce costs: When water usage falls, water costs fall for everyone.
  • Mitigate friction: Submetering helps reduce friction between tenants, owners, or any other party involved with a particular property. When everyone pays for the water they use, everyone is accountable to only themselves.
