Checking for Leaks

Determine if Water is Being Wasted

Did you know; the Trident T-10 water meter located in your home or business can help determine if water is being wasted due to leaks.

On the face of the water meter there is a small red triangular indicator that will spin as water is flowing through the meter. The speed at which the indicator spins is based on how much water is flowing through the meter. If a small amount of water is leaking through a faucet or toilet, the indicator will spin very slowly.

It is recommended that you check for leaks at least once a month. Make sure all water use inside and outside of the property is turned off. When you know that all the water usage is off, the leak indicator should not move.

So the next time you notice a higher than normal water bill, check this indicator on the water meter, this may help lower your bill and conserve water.
