What is Gas Submetering?

Natural gas submetering is based on the concept of measuring the natural gas used in each individual unit of a multi-tenant facility. A gas meter is installed on the gas line going to each individual unit in order to separately measure the usage of each individual unit in a multi-tenant facility. This allows for the billing to be separated out by the exact usage of each tenant.
