NEW METERS INTALLED ON RANCH

Pine Meadow Mutual Water began to install new data entry meters with remote read and data logger. The new meters we are installing have radio read technology allowing us to find leaks quickly on the home owners side of the meter. The radio read allows us to drive down the road in winter and summer and read meters at 70 meters per second. The meters also give us a 24 hour alarm which means that if any amount of water that runs through the meter for 24 hrs continous will eset off the alarm when we are driving around with the reader and let us know about the leak. The meters also come with data entry logs and will log the water usage for 96 days to give us a better understanding of when the water is used or when a leak occured. Every lot with a water connection will recieve one of these new meters. The new meters have an atenna that sets flush with the lid and has a cable running down to the meter. Please be careful with this wire it is not cheap to replace or repair. Please make sure there are no obstructions blocking your meter for easier install to your lot. We are still asking everybody if you are not at your cabin for a long period of time to please take the time to shut your meter off at the street. If you plan on leaving your meter on for the winter make sure to insulate it. This can be done at a very low cost. All you need is some regular wall insulation, put it in a garbage bag and drop it in your meter pit. When doing this just make sure not to pack it in tight or the insulation will not work. Thanks and if you have any questions please feel free to contact us.
