City Meter, Inc.

Flat rate sewer service occurs when a water and sewer utility does not have water lines in an area, but does have sewer service lines in the area. Customers are provided sewer service on a flat rate billing basis. The problem with this service is that the utility has no way to measure how much service is being provided since there is no water meter to estimate actual service usage. This leads to billing the customer on a flat rate fee basis regardless of the actual amount of wastewater service provided.

By installing City Meter's sewer service meter in the sewer service line of the "flat rate" customer, the utility can bill the customer based on actual sewer usage. This ensures that the utility will receive the revenue for the services provided and that the customer will conserve sewer usage. City Meter's sewer service meter is the best solution to the "flat rate" problem!
