Overview
A water meter is required for all accounts that receive water and sewer service.
Water meters are generally located within the interior of the building to prevent freezing and are commonly located in a mechanical room, crawl space, near a hot water heater or in a boiler room.
District employees do not need to come inside your home to read a meter for billing purposes because we utilize a radio transmitting system (MXU) which transmits a radio signal to our recievers to record.
The MXU is battery powered. If the battery is weak, it will notify us and we will contact you to arrange replacement.
Hydrant meter rental is available if you are unable to access water from your home or construction site. Please contact us for a copy of a short term rental (less than 30 days) form.
Long term hydrant meter rental (more than thirty days) is approved on a case-by-case basis and may be granted under special circumstances, please contact us at 970-476-7480 for more information.
A deposit, including installation cost, must be paid by cash or check prior to setting an installation appointment.
If you believe your meter is not functioning properly, please contact us and we will send a technician to investigate high or low usage at no charge to you.
