Do you have to buy a water meter from a water company?

That's right.

Take Korla. In urban areas, for example, the urban household meter renovation project "one meter per household, water meter out of the house, meter reading to the household", for a family (a house) to install a ** settlement water meter in the outdoor public part of the residence, by the urban public water supply enterprises and residents to sign a water supply contract and according to the household meter, charge the renovation project. The scope of the urban household meter renovation project starts from the water supply main of the public water supply enterprise, and passes through the courtyard, the metering meter outside the residential building, and the outdoor pipeline to the residential building.

After the transformation, the maintenance and management of pipelines, fire water meters and other facilities from the main water supply pipeline of the urban public water supply enterprise to the metering water meter (including the metering water meter) outside the residential building shall be responsible for the urban public water supply enterprise, and the household and management units shall actively assist and cooperate; Fire fighting facilities.

and the maintenance and management of the pipeline from the metering water meter to the residential house are the responsibility of all owners and users.

The question is quirky. Because, first, if you install your own sub-meter, such as a house and then divide several faucets, for different people to use, calculate the amount of water, then you can buy any water meter; Second, if it is a water meter that is used to read and charge from the water company, you cannot buy and install it yourself, even if you buy it from the water company. Moreover, if the water meter is naturally damaged, the water company can install it for free.

No, as long as you buy the water meter composite national standard.

No, you can buy it somewhere else.

The property rights of the master water meter belong to the water company, and the property rights of the sub-meters installed from the master meter (the water company charges according to the reading of the master meter) to each household belong to the household.

In accordance with the principle of "water meter out of the household, one meter per household, meter reading to the household, and charging to the household", after the completion of the transformation of one household and one meter, it is clear that the property rights are bounded by the user's water meter. The property rights of all water supply facilities (except secondary water supply pressurization equipment and fire hydrants) outside the user's water meter (including water meter) belong to the water company, and are maintained and managed by the water company.

The property rights of the water supply facilities in the user's water meter belong to the user, and they can maintain it by themselves, or they can entrust the water company to maintain it on their behalf, but the entrusted matter is a paid service. "One household, one meter" means that the user signs a water supply contract with the water supply enterprise, and is the direct settlement account of the water supply enterprise. Through the implementation of the household meter renovation project, water users can use how much water they can use and how much they pay according to the regulations, so that they can consume clearly.

The property right of the normal water meter is the tap water or the property company, if it is a failure caused by a quality problem and needs to be replaced, the normal is to let the tap water or the property company operate it for free, without the owner's money, if it is man-made damage or the owner feels that the water meter is not allowed to be replaced, then you have to pay for it. The three civil meters are limited in time, and the normal life of the water meter is 6 years, and after expiration, the tap water or property company will replace it free of charge.

Dear, hello, I am happy to answer your questions, the installation of water meters by water companies is generally 200 yuan, but there is a difference in the installation fees of various cities, and the specific ** is based on the water company.

The tap water meter is a metering tool used to measure water consumption, which is generally divided into two types: mechanical and electronic.

Water meter on water pipes. On the dial of the water meter, there are several small pointers arranged along the arc, **There is a small red triangle, when the faucet is unscrewed and the water is flowing, this small red triangle will rotate. As for the little hands, they barely move whether the water flows or not.

The dial also has the word "m3", which means cubic meter. That is, the unit of reading on this table is the cubic meter. Because each cubic meter of water weighs exactly one tonn, the reading is directly the tonnage, so the water bill can be easily calculated from the reading (tonnage) of the total amount of water used.

So how does a water meter work? It's actually quite simple, because the casing of the water meter is fixed, the volume inside it is fixed, and the water is flowing, it pushes an impeller to rotate, and every time the impeller rotates once, there is a constant volume of water flowing through. Therefore, just add up the number of revolutions of the impeller and multiply it by this constant volume to get the total amount of water flowing through.
