Roxborough Water and Sanitation District owns and maintains customer water meters, according to its meter guide reviewed Nov. 10. The district says replacement meters are provided without a customer charge and describes a ten-year replacement cycle.

Meters can be in a basement, crawl space or outside pit, depending on the property. The utility reads them remotely and asks customers to avoid covering the equipment with objects or debris that could interfere with communication.

When replacement requires indoor access, the district says it leaves a notice to arrange an appointment. Outside-meter work may briefly interrupt water service. Customers who think a device is malfunctioning should contact the district; the guide does not ask residents to remove or replace utility equipment themselves.
