- The recommended method is to check your hourly readings through My ServiceOttawa. If you do not have an account, you may register for one. Once logged in, select “Usage” in the left-hand pane. If water usage is being recorded at every hour, overnight or at a time where zero or low amounts of water are used, there is likely a leak.

How to read your water meter. Taking a meter reading is as easy as reading your car odometer. Your meter will display a six to nine-digit number depending on the model of the meter installed in your home.

A water meter in your house is the device that registers (measures) the total amount of water used during the utility company’s billing period. This act of measuring is called water metering.

Okay, let’s answer the question (where is my water meter?) before you get impatient with me. Try this. Go out to the front of your yard near the street. You will probably find a round or square metal lid near the curb. If you open it (with a crowbar, pliers, or screwdriver), you’ll see that concrete pit that contains your water meter.

Water volume is measured in gallons or cubic feet. If your meter uses cubic feet, you need to know that 1 cubic foot equals 7.48 gallons. So, if your meter registers 10 cubic feet of water, it means you’ve used 74.8 gallons. 100 cubic feet is 748 gallons. And 1000 cubic feet is 10,000 gallons.
Did you know your water meter can help you find a leak? It can.

But what if you’re in another part of the season, or your summer doesn’t have much of that? If you notice your bill continuing to inc...
