How Submetering Works
1. Install
A wireless meter is installed in every unit and an internet router-sized, central submeter data collector is installed in a mechanical room, closet or leasing office. Pre-programmed, client-installed submeter kits are also available.
2. Connect
The central data collector is connected to Guardian's network over an internet connection provided by the property. 3G and manual read options are also available for smaller properties that may not have an on-site leasing office or clubhouse. Meter reads are then pushed into Guardian's network in real time.
3. Bill
Guardian sends a monthly utility bill to each occupant based on their submetered usage and the same exact rates as those billed by the local provider. We provide regulatory assistance to keep your property's submetering and billing program in compliance with all local rules and regulations.
4. Collect
The property can opt for in-house collections or it can outsource that function to Guardian. Either way, our website portal makes your new submeter program easy to manage. Identify leaks and receive notifications of spikes in usage or meters requiring service at your property. Keep tabs on resident utility payments, report occupancy changes and integrate with property management software such as Yardi, OneSite, AppFolio and RentManager.
