This HOA saves $136k EVERY YEAR with SimpleSUB Water
The Problem
Colorado water rates were skyrocketing — up to 44% annually — driving HOAs to prioritize water conservation and fair billing. One HOA in Parker, CO, faced:
- Rising water costs (3%+ per year).
- High costs of traditional metering ($1,000+/unit).
- Difficulty in ensuring fair resident billing.
The Solution
SimpleSUB Water launched a pilot project with:
- Ultrasonic submetering technology—affordable, non-invasive, and quick to install.
- A water audit that uncovered 17 costly leaks wasting $63K/year.
- A pilot install in 5 units, costing 1/3 less than traditional metering.
The Results
- SimpleSUB detected a leak in the first few hours due from a failing water softener device that used 434 gallons of water within 5 hours.
- SimpleSUB helped bill residents for their fair share of water, reduced time to fix leaks, and enhanced property values.
- Our submetering technology is projected to:
- Reduce HOA dues by $76 per unit by decoupling water costs.
- Decrease community water costs by $136k/year (25% drop in usage).
- Save the community $384k over the next 5 years.
Why SimpleSUB?
- Non-invasive installation: 10 minutes/unit.
- Affordable pilot projects.
- Real-time leak detection and unit-level billing.
