The Writing Is On The Wall!

We found this sign last winter at the entrance of an HOA community. Clearly the high gas bill and over-consumption is a huge issue at this community.  The solution is simple..............SUBMETERING!

People need more motivation to conserve than just a sign that tells them to "do what you can to conserve." We also observed a fully opened window in one unit. Not the best idea in the dead of winter and not the best idea if you are trying to conserve your gas usage.

Relms can help this community conserve and reduce their gas bill by installing a submetering system. Once the system is installed, residents would pay for their own, actual gas consumption and not a flat rate paid with HOA fees.

Some residents would pay considerably less for gas and HOA fees would be reduced. The community as a whole would conserve and reduce overall gas consumption by 20 to 30 percent.

If your community (HOA or Apartments) is in a similar situation, contact Relms today. 1-877-906-2230

Right now is the best time

to install a Relms submetering system! If you have a property that is master-metered (meaning one utility meter for the entire property), contact Relms to see how we can help promote utility conservation and help lower your utility costs through submetering!

One great reason to install a natural gas submetering system in summer, is that it makes for an easier transition into the heating season for your residents. You can avoid those huge winter gas bills by using a submetering system. Residents pay for what they consume and those who are conservative users will no longer subsidize the over-consumers.

Relms has great submetering and billing options for all types of utilities. Please contact us to learn more about submetering and how it can make an impact at your property. Call us now for great summertime pricing 1-877-906-2230.

Energy Solutions Center

Relms representatives are attending the Energy Solutions Center (ESC) conference in Portland, Oregon this week. This quarterly conference is held in cities around the country and brings together gas companies from many states to educate and introduce new products and ideas that help building owners, architects and engineers build greener and reduce carbon footprints. Relms has been a member of ESC for a number of years and we continue to educate those attending the conference about utility submetering in vertical subdivisions. Please visit our website to learn more about submetering and how it really is a 'green' concept.
