Water Pressure Restored

Due to a mechanical issue at one of water plants in MCMUD 89, customers saw low pressure this morning. The issue has been corrected and pressures are back to normal.

Smart Meter Installations

On Monday, April 8 meter installations began in Montgomery County MUD 89. The installs will continue until all meters have been replaced with Ultrasonic Smart Meters. The process should take no more than a few weeks.

What to Expect as a homeowner:

Meter Installs typically take around 15 minutes, and the meter technician will knock on your door before the installation begins. Expect loss of water during time of install. Once the install is finished, if you have loss in pressure, open faucets in your home to release any air that may be in the line.

Upon completion of the project, door tags will be dispersed that will provide further information on how to take advantage of the benefits of your new meter. The meters will allow you to:

  • Monitor water usage on any internet-capable device
  • View a graphic presentation of your hourly consumption
  • Set leak alerts
  • Have more consistent meter readings and predictable billing

Please, be expecting your new meter within the upcoming weeks and prepare to take advantage of the new metering technology in the near future.

Sincerely,

Montgomery County MUD 89
