Submetering

The Oahu Surf II Board of Directors has approved to submeter electricity usage in the building.  Submetering involves installing individual meters in each unit. By doing so, it will allow for accurate measurement of energy consumption, which will result in fairer billing and overall energy efficiency.  With the rising cost of utilities, energy-efficient buildings often have higher property values, too.  

Starting 10/14/2024, technicians will require entry into each unit to install metering equipment near the electrical breaker. This is a small device (11” W x 8” H x 5.5” D), that will determine how much electricity is being used within each unit and charged directly back to the owner based on individual unit usage. The device will be installed at a maximum distance of six inches away from your circuit breaker panel. The entire installation process should take no longer than two hours. Please make arrangements with the Site Manager, regarding any access issues. We will do our best to accommodate differing schedules, but ultimately the responsibility for granting access will lie with each individual owner / resident as it is imperative that there is 100% compliance in this endeavor. Prior to the time of your scheduled installation, please have the area around your electrical breaker cleared for the technicians. 

Once submetering is activated, owners will be billed monthly for their share of energy use.  Units with A/C will no longer have to pay the extra fee. 

Should you have any questions, you may contact the Management Company.  Your cooperation during the installation phase is very much appreciated.
