Reading your meter

From this video guide, learn to read your meter if you are concerned about usage or leaks:

SWLCWPUD installations include the line to the water main, a shut-off valve, and the meter.

SWLCWPUD recommends a property owner have a shut-off valve installed on their side of the meter by a certified plumber. The property owner will be responsible for the maintenance of their shut-off valve.
