Choosing the Best Utility Submetering System for Your Property
In today’s marketplace, there are numerous submetering systems to choose from—and not all are created equal. Additionally, various cities and states impose restrictions on the types of submeters that can be installed for utility billing purposes, making it essential to choose the right system.
Some submetering systems are designed for indoor applications, while others are built for outdoor environments. Many systems utilize an on-site internet connection, while others operate over cellular networks or require manual visual readings each month. Additionally, certain systems are designed for high-rise buildings and large-scale manufactured housing communities, while "lite" versions are better suited for smaller properties.
