Mind your meter this spring

A person holds a water meter in their hands.

Gippsland Water is reminding customers to watch out for their water meter as people fire up their mowers for spring.

The warmer weather usually sees the water business’ customer call centre receive an increased number of calls about damaged water meters.

Water meters can often be hidden by long grass, and once damaged, usually require repair by field crew members.

A simple way people can avoid damaging their water meter is to check its location before beginning to mow.

Customers who are unsure of where their water meter is can call 1800 050 500 for more information.
