Buyer checklist

How to choose a submetering company

Use the same written questions with every bidder. A credible comparison should cover technical fit, compliance, operations, resident experience, and the entire contractβ€”not only the meter price.

01

Utility and property fit

Confirm that the provider supports your utility type, building configuration, unit count, and retrofit or new-construction schedule.

02

Regulatory scope

Ask which licences, meter approvals, billing rules, and consumer-protection requirements apply in the property's jurisdiction.

03

End-to-end ownership

Document who is responsible for design, installation, reads, validation, billing, collections workflow, resident support, and maintenance.

04

Data and billing controls

Review how exceptions, estimated reads, rate changes, audit trails, move-ins, move-outs, and billing disputes are handled.

05

Equipment flexibility

Determine whether the proposed meters and communications network suit the property instead of forcing every project into one hardware stack.

06

Commercial terms

Compare the full contract: implementation cost, ongoing fees, term, ownership, service levels, escalation, and exit provisions.

Submetering company questions

Does Axis Meter serve the United States and Canada?

Axis evaluates multifamily and commercial submetering projects in Canada and the United States. Availability, equipment, billing structure, and compliance requirements are reviewed for each property and jurisdiction before a proposal is made.

How should I compare submetering providers?

Compare utility and building fit, licensing and regulatory knowledge, implementation responsibility, meter-data controls, billing and resident support, equipment options, maintenance commitments, total contract cost, and exit terms.

Can Axis sell or install submetering equipment without billing services?

Project scope can vary. Contact Axis with the utility type, property location, unit count, and desired equipment, installation, data, or billing responsibilities so the team can confirm an appropriate scope.
