CITY OF ROSWELL

With an aging water meter inventory, the City of Roswell turned to Yearout Energy Services to aid in finding a sustainable solution. Yearout Energy Services performed an in-depth audit of the existing water meter system to determine inaccuracy and non-revenue water loss from the aging meters. A customized retro-fit program was created based off of the audit to upgrade over 19,500 meters to a solid state, including an AMI collection system. The retro-fit also included the installation of Remote Disconnect valves on all residential meters. The recovered revenue resulting from the high accuracy of the new meters will be used finance the project. On top of the project paying for itself, the City can significantly reduce operations and maintenance costs, and view system operations in realtime through a new meter data management program.
