Why SimpleSUB Is the Right Choice for Water Submetering in Fort Collins

Fort Collins has one of Colorado's strongest rental markets, driven by Colorado State University and a growing professional population. With Fort Collins Utilities rates rising steadily, property owners absorbing shared water costs are leaving meaningful revenue on the table. SimpleSUB gives Fort Collins landlords and property managers a fast, affordable path to usage-based billing.

As a Colorado-based company, we know Fort Collins Utilities billing structure and the city's housing stock. Our submeters install without a plumber and connect over cellular, with no WiFi or hub infrastructure required.

Built for Fort Collins Properties

Fort Collins rental stock spans older student housing near campus, established family neighborhoods, and newer HOA communities in areas like Harmony and Fossil Lake. SimpleSUB clamp-on submeters work on copper, PEX, PVC, and CPVC pipes with no cutting or modification. Most installations take under 20 minutes per unit.

Fort Collins water conservation culture aligns well with submetering. Tenants who pay for actual usage typically reduce consumption by up to 30%, which benefits both property owners and the community.
