Water Meters

NPDC is installing water meters at all residential properties that are on a public water supply.

Our goal: saving water and money

Water conservation is the best thing we can do to ensure the health of our rivers and the environment, and also manage the cost of delivering the water service.

Water billing

There will be one year of ‘mock billing’ before NPDC switches to charging by volume, so that households can track their use and fix any leaks that are found.

Leaks

Leaks across New Plymouth District’s network are estimated to be around seven million litres per day (19 per cent of total production).

Getting a meter: what to expect

Getting an individual water meter installed will take two visits from our contractors and will require a short water shutdown.
