Ratio Utility Billing Systems (RUBS) vs. SimpleSUB Water
RUBS
Can be based off of square footage, number of occupants, or a combination of the two. This can result in inaccurate, unfair estimates.
Can result in tenants paying more or less than their fair share.
Give tenants no clarity around their actual water usage, so they lack incentive to report leaks, repair damage, and conserve water.
SimpleSUB Water’s Smart Ratio Billing System
Equips users with the tools to bill tenants by actual usage.
Makes water billing transparent and straightforward.
Allows property owners and managers to gain trust and credibility, because billing becomes fair and accurate.
Raising the Rent vs. Submetering
Most property owners guess how much water their tenants will use. They raise the rent to compensate for rising and variable water bills. This approach involves constant guesswork, makes billing inequitable, and risks unexpectedly high water bills.
Implementing water submetering ensures that:
There’s no guesswork in water billing.
Your tenants pay for their actual usage.
Whether your motivation is to save money or the planet, everyone conserves water. Studies show that when we know how much water we use, we use substantially less.
