New to digital meters
Digital water meters are helping our customers save water and money.
Say hello to digital water meters
We’re excited to be rolling out new digital technology across our service area. With a digital water meter it's easier for you to track water usage, make changes to how much water you use, and save money on bills.
We’ll be installing digital meters across South East Melbourne until 2029.
What is a digital meter?
A digital water meter is similar to the current water meter called an analogue meter at your property. They both measure how much water you use but digital meters record your water use more regularly and help identify leaks, which if fixed quickly, save water and money.
When it comes to managing water usage, we know that every drop counts.
Save money with leak alerts
- Money, like water, is much better saved. With your new digital water meter, you can do both. If your digital meter detects water continuously flowing, there’s a chance it’s a leak. We’ll let you know as soon as this happens, so you can quickly fix the issue.
- Leak notifications also help us build a stronger network, so we can make improvements and reduce major leaks or network issues.. Stopping leaks sooner means conserving our precious drinking water.
- Find out how to check for leaks and get leak alerts.
