Submeter Installation
Submetering is one of the most cost effective ways to reduce and recover the ever increasing utility expenses your property has. With AMBS you will no longer have to provide your tenants with free water, sewer, heat, or electric services.
When you choose to have AMBS Submeter your property our team of professional installers will put a small meter, like the one pictured to the right, into every unit. This meter will record your tenant's actual usage and allow us to bill that tenant for their actual consumption. This ensures fair and accurate billing, as well as encouraging your tenants to conserve. If the tenant takes steps to reduce their usage they will see a direct reward in way of a lower utility bill.
AMBS Submeters for all major utilities, including Gas, Electric, and Water.
