Wellington starts replacing water meters

The village of Wellington’s Water Utility department has begun the process of replacing every water meter within the village’s utility customer base. The village is moving to the Badger Meter Orion Automated Meter Reading system for improving water conservation and providing better service to water customers. The centralized system will allow water meters to be monitored in real time, enabling faster leak detection and reducing water loss. The system will also be able to provide daily reading history for customers.
Customers will receive notices in their utility bills throughout the month. Notices will also be placed on every door two days before installation of the new meters. The entire change-out process should be complete by June.

For more information, call 561-791-4010. General replacement schedules will be included in the utility bill inserts.
