What kind of system allows them to control water, gas, and electricity flow to a certain house?
In: 21
Meters. There’s one for each of the utilities.
Electricity: Your breaker has a measure for kWh.
Gas: there’s a meter for how much gas is used in BTUs.
Water: how many gallons go past also meter sometimes measured in cubic feet or BU.
They charge you a rate (sometimes tiered) by unit of measure.
So if you used 1000 gallons and are charged let’s say $0.10. Then you pay $100.
The rates should be on the bull your local utilities website.
