Cellular Water Meters
About Cellular Water Meters
The new smart meter uses the Beacon Cellular Water Meter technology to transmit data via cellular four times per day. Cellular Water Meters send meter reads to the TCPUD automatically, eliminating the need to drive or walk by water meters to perform meter reads. Cellular-enabled endpoints collect data from water meters, then transmit the encrypted information safely and securely to the TCPUD’s data management system.
Eliminating the need for vehicular travel to read meters reduces greenhouse gas emissions and allows the TCPUD to work proactively to maintain the water system and continue to focus on its mission of providing safe and reliable water to its customers.
Leak Alert Notifications
Customers with "smart" meters can receive notification within 24 hours of a potential leak via email and/or text.
Customer Dashboard: EyeOnWater
The smart meter technology provides access to the EyeOnWater app, an easy-to-use web dashboard with companion apps for Android and iOS. EyeOnWater enables customers to configure alert preferences and track water usage, identify a leak, and "keep an eye on" and maximize water use efficiency. Tools available to customers using EyeOnWater include easy to understand consumption graphs.
