Submetering Solutions for RV Parks

Last reviewed September 2026Reviewed by Grant Forehand, Compliance Officer, 20 years with NES

Submetering puts a meter on each RV lot for water, sewer, and electric, so guests pay for what they use and the park stops absorbing the bill.

Submetering is a practical way for RV parks to control utility cost. By installing individual meters for water, sewer, and electric on each lot, the park bills guests for their actual usage rather than carrying the cost itself. That encourages conservation and recovers expense that used to come straight off the bottom line.

Quick answer

How does submetering help RV parks reduce utility costs?

Submetering installs an individual meter on each RV lot, so the park can bill guests for their actual water, sewer, and electric use instead of absorbing it. Because RV usage swings widely from lot to lot, per-lot metering is especially effective: it recovers cost, encourages conservation, and pinpoints high-usage or leaking lots. NES installs the meters, reads them, and runs the billing.

Why RV parks submeter

  • Each lot is billed for its actual water, sewer, and electric use
  • Per-lot tracking pinpoints high-usage and leaking lots quickly
  • Inconsistent RV usage is measured accurately instead of averaged
  • Guests conserve more when they pay for what they use
  • NES installs the meters, reads them, and handles the billing

Why water and sewer submetering fits RV parks

Water and sewer use in an RV park is inconsistent, since occupancy and length of stay vary by lot. Submeters track usage lot by lot, so the park can see where consumption is high and act on it, which lowers both the water bill and overall usage across the property.

What NES handles

NES installs the meters, reads them, pays the master-meter bill, and bills guests, with an in-house bilingual support team. The park gets the cost recovery without taking on the metering and billing work.
