Titusville
Utility Submetering and Billing Services
For All Types of Multi-Unit Residential and Commercial Properties
Customized Utility Submetering and Billing for
Water, Electric and Gas
Many multifamily communities, mobile home parks, and commercial properties have achieved meaningful operational improvements by partnering with Oates Energy for professional utility management. Our Titusville utility submetering and billing services for water, electric, and gas are designed to be flexible and adaptable to the specific needs of each property. Instead of relying on rigid, prepackaged programs, we allow property managers to select individual services based on their infrastructure, management style, and cost-recovery goals.
With our Titusville utility submetering and billing approach, property managers can further adjust how those selected services are delivered so they align with daily operations and resident expectations. This ability to customize service delivery helps improve billing accuracy, simplify administrative responsibilities, and strengthen the recovery of utility expenses. Below is an overview of how we tailor our solutions to meet the needs of several important property types.
Multifamily
Submetering & Billing
Multifamily property managers often have very different preferences regarding how utilities, recurring charges, and other monthly fees should be billed to residents. Oates Energy recognized early that a single billing structure cannot effectively serve every community. That understanding is the foundation of our Titusville utility submetering and billing services, which are designed to give property managers greater control instead of forcing them into rigid billing programs.
With our Titusville utility submetering and billing approach, managers select only the services they need and then refine how those services are delivered to match their property’s management style and resident expectations. This flexible model helps improve the accuracy of utility cost recovery while also making monthly billing easier to administer. Contact us to discuss a customized solution designed to help your community recover utility costs in the way that works best for your property.
Condominium Utility
Submetering & Billing
Condominium property managers often consider submetering to be one of the most accurate and fair methods for allocating shared utility expenses. With our Titusville utility submetering and billing, residents are charged based on their actual consumption of water, electric, or gas services. This usage-based approach gives residents greater awareness and control over their monthly utility costs while promoting conservation throughout the community, which can ultimately help reduce overall utility expenses.
Condominium associations and HOAs also appreciate the flexibility built into our Titusville utility submetering and billing services. Property managers can select only the services that are appropriate for their community and then adjust how those services are delivered so they align with association policies and operational preferences. If your community is looking for a more accurate and balanced way to recover utility costs, we can help design a customized solution tailored to your unique needs.
Mobile Home Park
Submetering & Billing
Oates Energy has partnered with thousands of mobile home parks to improve how utilities are tracked, billed, and recovered. Through this experience, we have seen how rising utility costs, outdated or inconsistent submetering equipment, and the need to bill residents using different methods can create administrative challenges for park managers. These issues often lead to confusion, billing inconsistencies, and difficulty recovering the full cost of utilities. Our Titusville utility submetering and billing services are designed to help parks overcome these challenges with more efficient and accurate utility management.
With our Titusville utility submetering and billing solutions, park managers can upgrade or standardize their submetering equipment, automate utility and recurring fee billing, or combine both approaches for a streamlined system. Every service can be customized to match the operational preferences of the park and its management team. Contact us to discuss a tailored solution designed specifically to help your mobile home community simplify billing and recover more of its utility costs.

Utility Submetering Laws and Regulations in Florida
*Where individual metering is not required and master metering is used in lieu thereof, reasonable apportionment methods, including submetering may be used by the customer of record or the owner of such facility solely for the purpose of allocating the cost of the electricity billed by the utility. The term “cost” as used herein means only those charges specifically authorized by the electric utility’s tariff, including but not limited to the customer, energy, demand, fuel, conservation, capacity and environmental charges made by the electric utility plus applicable taxes and fees to the customer of record responsible for the master meter payments.
The term “cost” does not include late payment charges, returned check charges, the cost of the customer-owned distribution system behind the master meter, the customer of record’s cost of billing the individual units, and other such costs. Any fees or charges collected by a customer of record for electricity billed to the customer’s account by the utility, whether based on the use of submetering or any other allocation method, shall be determined in a manner which reimburses the customer of record for no more than the customer’s actual cost of electricity.
Each utility shall develop a standard policy governing the provisions of submetering as provided for herein. Such policy shall be filed by each utility as part of its tariffs. The policy shall have uniform application and shall be nondiscriminatory (Fla. Administrative Code §25-6.049).
