Water meters can malfunction, particularly as they get older.  However, we have found that their tendency is to slow down rather than speed up.  With advance notice, a test can be scheduled.  If the meter tests correctly, you will be charged a $50 testing fee for a residential meter.  Commercial accounts are done on contract cost.  If the meter tests incorrectly, you will not be charged the testing fee.

You can easily check for an error in the meter reading used to calculate your bill.  Simple read your water meter to see if the reading higher or lower than the present reading on your bill.  If it is lower, call City Hall and we will issue a service order to have a meter reader check the read.  If the reading is higher, you should check for a leak in your house plumbing or service line.

-Turn off all water in and outside of your house. DO NOT TURN OFF THE MASTER VALVE.
-Record the reading on your meter.
-Do not use any water in your home for at least 1 hours.
-Recheck the meter every 20 minutes for 1 hour. The reading should be identical to the reading taken earlier. If it is higher, you have a leak.. It is your responsibility to have it repaired.
NOTE: Continuously running toilets can be a silent culprit. Check the overflow pipes in the toilet tanks to be sure water isn't draining. Place a few drops of food coloring in the tank, don't flush and check the bowl in about 15 minutes. If any of the colorings appear in the bowl, you probably have a tank to toilet bowl leak, which will require a repair.

The City is responsible for the main line and meter up to the point of the customer's service line connection to the meter.
