metering
Huurkor Admin (Pty) Ltd Metering Services offers Community Schemes a comprehensive meter reading and administrative (recovery) service for the Scheme’s utility services, be it electricity, water and sanitation, or both. As the holder of the bulk utility account, the Community Scheme is the service provider to the individual units, with Huurkor Admin (Pty) Ltd Metering Services providing the necessary meter reading and administrative service to recover the costs from the units’ consumption.
The units’ individual meter readings are taken monthly and captured for record- and calculation purposes. The charges are calculated, in accordance with the prescribed tariffs of the applicable bulk service provider, such as the Community Scheme, a municipality or Eskom. The calculated charges are posted to account statements and sent to the owner of the unit, as well as the unit’s tenant, if applicable, for payment. The funds recovered from the individual units’ consumption and accounts are paid to the Community Scheme, enabling the Community Scheme to settle the bulk account.
The advantages of Huurkor Admin (Pty) Ltd Metering Services providing the meter reading and administrative services are:
- Since the Community Scheme is the service provider, the individual units’ utility accounts are paid to the Community Scheme. This often results in an over-recovery, or profit, which remains the funds of the Community Scheme.
- The Community Scheme retains control over their bulk utility account(s). With individual third-party utility service providers, the Community Scheme will not always know whether their bulk account is paid partly or in full, which may result in services being disconnected without the Trustees / Directors or Managing Agent receiving any knowledge or warning of the disconnection.
To provide this service, Huurkor Admin (Pty) Ltd Metering Services uses Urbtec’s utility management solution. This utility management solution empowers us to efficiently implement, maintain and manage utility networks for our clients. The Urbtec world-class platform provides a solution for automatically collecting meter readings through smart meters or manual meter reading apps, managing utility metered networks and collecting utility income from tenants and residents, all imported into our operating software to provide our clients with an effortless experience.
