Reading Municipal Water Meters 

Tracking your city’s water usage is a complicated task that can be time-consuming and expensive. That’s where Metereaders comes in. We can keep track of your municipal water usage while you focus on keeping everything else running. Leave the water meters to us.

Our team’s top priority is helping your city. With our commitment to efficiency, accuracy, affordability and excellent customer service, we’re confident that we’re the best team for the job. But you don’t need to take our word for it; we have over 40 years of satisfied clients to back us up.

Considering Contract Metering Services to Track Water Usage?

So, why sign up with a contracted meter reader service? There are a number of reasons. Perhaps the biggest advantage is that you don’t need additional utility personnel to read your meters or train your existing employees. City personnel can keep doing the work they need to do, and we can read your water meter.

Benefits of Contracting with Metereaders

Metereaders has been operating in Washington for over 40 years now, and we’re very well-established in our area. Just a few of the many benefits of entrusting your meter reading to our experienced team are:

  • Reduced Costs. You won’t need to purchase or maintain new systems or vehicles; we keep our own. We also manage our own computer systems, ensuring accurate readings and minimizing redundancies. Our clients could save up to 50% compared to paying utility personnel to read meters!
  • Fast Turnaround Times. We can read over a thousand water meters in a single day, and with our proprietary computer system, we can get those results back to you with minimal delay.
  • Reduced Environmental Impact. Our team uses lightweight, fuel-efficient scooters during our rounds — averaging 1000 meters read for every gallon of gas. Plus, if we detect leaks early, we could save gallons of water waste.

Automatic and Manual Meter Reading

Many cities haven’t updated their metering systems for some time simply because adopting these updated systems is time-consuming and expensive. That’s why Metereaders still reads older and new types of meters. We even handle manual reading systems. Whatever meter reading method your system requires, we can accommodate it. Metereaders can implement and maintain an AMR or AMI system with no upfront costs.

Even in the case of drive-by readings, we still take time to visually inspect the meters to check for leaks. This can help us identify leaks or other problems with individual meters. Every year, household water leaks cost cities money. If your current reading is unusually high compared to a previous read, that is a reliable leak indicator that our team can help you track down. Our visual inspections and fast readings mean we can catch leaks early, mitigating water loss and save money.
