Utility Billing, Conservation Solutions, and More

RUBS Billing

RUBS (Ratio Utility Billing System) is a form of allocation billing whereby the utility charges are based on a pre-calculated formula that takes into account many factors which may include number of occupants in each premise,  number of bedrooms of each premise, square footage of the premise, days of occupancy  and common area usage.

 

The RUBS billing method will allow you to:

  • Recover your utility costs rapidly and increase your NOI.
  • Quickly implement a customized billing program with little or no out of pocket expense.
  • Encourage your residents to immediately report leaks.
  • Promote communities to collectively conserve utilities.

Submeter Billing

Water submetering requires the installation of a water submeter in an individual resident’s premise. The water submeter is equipped with a radio transmitter, which transmits a resident’s real time usage to an on-site data collector which is used for billing, troubleshooting and or analyzing usage.  A single internet connection is required for the data collector, which is typically located in the on-site leasing office or utility closet.

Submetering allows you to:

  • Bill residents for their actual metered water usage.
  • Identify premise specific leaks.
  • Provide residents with a precise picture of their utility usage, encouraging them to be more aware of their consumption.
  • Protect your investment from the ever-rising costs of utilities, ultimately increasing profitability.
