With a new year comes new water meters for some residents in Burpengary and Morayfield.
“Meters are replaced for several reasons, including age or if high volumes of water have flowed through them, as well as other operational or asset performance factors,” Basterfield said.“Replacing a meter typically takes around 30 minutes to one hour, so service interruptions are short, and residents will receive a notification card in their letterbox at least 48 hours before the works if their meter is to be replaced.
“Our crews will also pop a card in the resident’s letterbox, which records the water consumption measured by the old meter. We encourage our customers to keep this reading for reference and to cross check it when they receive their next Unitywater bill.”
Basterfield said the replacement works were important to continue to provide a safe, reliable water supply for the community.
