The City of St. Catharines uses water meters, located at each property, to determine water usage for the property.
Learn more about how we use meter readings to accurately determine bill amounts, water meter equivalency rates and frequently asked questions, such as:
- How much water can pass through my meter?
- Who owns and maintains my water meter and water meter valve?
- Where is the meter located in my home?
Submitting a water meter reading
Learn how you can read and submit a water meter reading to the City when:
- Receiving a water meter reading card
- You are moving and ready to vacate the premises, and a City official has not obtained a water meter reading yet
- You have a tenant moving in or out of the property and you wish to set up a Tenant Mailing Contract or have one in place
Water meter replacements
Our Water Meter Replacement Program ensures water meters are changed every 15 years near the end of their lifespan. Learn about how we replace meters and our new automated meter reading devices.
