Billing Back Water to Tenants

We are managing a property that was just purchased and the prior owner was using Guardian to bill back water and gas. Guardian is asking to sign a new contract with much higher service charges to the tenants. Rather than signing a new contract with Guardian, we are considering handling the calculations internally and adding the charge to the tenants account. If we do this, are there any requirements of information that we need to provide the tenant? Curious how others have handled this if you don't use a 3rd party.

Thanks,

Mike
