Also question is, how long does it take to fit a water meter?Usually, it takes around 28 days for a meter fitting and we will change your charges from the date of installation. If it takes us longer than 90 days, your metered charges will start from the 90th. After the installation, we’ll send you full details of your new metered account.Beside above, how does a water meter work? The mechanical types of water flow meters work by measuring the speed of water flowing through the pipe that causes a piston or turbine to rotate. The volumetric flow rate of the water is proportional to the rotational speed of the blades. Mechanical water meters also do not work well when the water flow is low. Moreover, how much does it cost to install a water meter? Nonetheless, most water main projects range between $1,700 and $3,000. Water main installation costs per foot range from $50 to $150.Is it worth installing a water meter?As a rule of thumb, a water meter could be more effective if there are more bedrooms than people in your household. By contrast, for larger families, being on a water meter may not be cost-effective as your water consumption will probably be high.
