Monitoring Your Meter

Not only is your water meter used for your quarterly bill, but it can be used as a tool to detect leaks in the house. A common concern our customers have are when their water bill has raised in price. Your water bill is based on the amount of water that is used at the property within that 90-day period of billing. If there is an increased bill with no changes to your water usage, you could possibly have something wasting water within the property. You can also keep track of your water usage by reading your meter manually as the reading be close to what is portrayed on your meter. The MPWC recommends that you follow these steps to check for leaks at your property.
