Submetering prepayment Electricity Vending System multiple tenants dwelling Granny Flats Body Corporates
Multiple tenants dwellings often face with a problem when it comes to charging for consumption of utilities as the properties are generally only fitted with one primary council meter.This means there is only one account for the utility consumed on the property and it is therefore difficult to determine who used what percentage of the consumption. Furthermore the landlord or the property owners have to manage risk of late or non-payment of utilities consumed. In the event that these problems and risks should materialize, the lanlords or the owner remains liable for making timely payment of the utility bill.
Without the aid of a prepaid metering solution, the financial situation of the owner and landlords or body corporates may fluctuate significantly, resulting in contraction of cash-flow. Since utility bills must be settled in order to avoid disconnection of supply, owners and landlords may have to from time to time divert funds to balance shortfalls.
Calin's meters and prepayment vending system is the ideal solution for utilities revenue collection management in these environments. Installed as sub-meter devices at the mainsdistribution board located within each dwelling area or section, our meters can be used to meter and govern the utility supplys.
Once installed our prepayment system ensures that all section owners and their tenants are required to prepay for utility before being supplied. The result is an immediate improvement in the cash-flow.
Key Benefit
1) Accurate bill and improved cash-flow
2) Obviates the cost for sectional meter reading service
3) Consumption on common property areas is also addressed by the supplus of revenue collected from the margin between a standard rate of each dwelling and a discounted rate of bulk-meters
4) System allows the owner and landlords to put on management fee or surcharge to each of the individual sub-meters
5) Flexible payment settings for such as emergency credit, low credit warning, repayment policies, and etc.
