[Todd Kalsey]

Was curious if an small multi-family investors in the greater Cincinnati area....

1. sub meter water?

2. if so, what company do you use and what are the costs/terms?

Thanks!

Guardian Water & Power is based in Ohio and provides water submetering and utility billing services in the Cincinnati area. Typical install costs range from $300-500 per unit depending on the plumbing set up and number of units at your building.  You also have the option of purchasing "do it yourself" submeter kits from Guardian.  Once the system is installed Guardian provides monthly read, monitor and bill services.  

First thing to confirm when you considering a submetering system is that each of your apartment units have their own hot water tank and shut off valve.  

Hope this helps and good luck!
