Water Utility Meters
Properties are billed through consumption based on water meter reads, the water meters belong to the City of New York but installation and maintenance are the responsibility of the property owner.
NYC allows any Licensed Master Plumber to install water meters but very few specialize in the installation, maintenance, and repair. DEP meter specifications are extremely specific. Failure to comply with DEP standards or filings may result in hefty fines such as attributed consumption charges (ACC), theft of service (TOS), or overestimated water & sewer bills. It is extremely important for property owners to hire a specialist and not a standard master plumber to do this work.
Most common problems that require utility meter replacement or installation:
Galvanized lead mains
Remote wiring
Improper meter set up
Cracked/frozen meters
Meters not properly registered
Backpressure
Stolen meter
