About This Tool
This calculator models how a mobile home park can recover water utility costs from residents, and highlights the administrative surcharge trap: when pass-through includes a service fee, cost recovery can exceed 100% of the utility bill.
Submeter: Each metered lot is billed actual usage at a blended rate plus a fixed admin fee. Accurate but expensive to install & maintain.
RUBS (Ratio Utility Billing): Usage allocated by weighted proxy factors (occupancy, bedrooms, area). No meters needed; lower accuracy.
Base Re-Allocation: Entire bill split evenly across lots. Simplest; uniform charges regardless of usage.
