Replacement of water meters

Replacing water meters is a necessary procedure to ensure accurate accounting of consumed water and compliance with legal requirements.

When is the replacement of water meters required?

• Expiration of service life. According to Ukrainian legislation, the service life of water meters is 4-6 years. After that, they need to be replaced or calibrated.
• Malfunction of the meter. A breakdown or incorrect operation of the meter requires its replacement for accurate accounting of water consumption.
• If the meter has not passed calibration, it must be replaced with a new one.
• Repair or reconstruction of water supply systems. During major repairs or modernization of water supply systems, replacement of meters is often required.
• Moving to a new home. When moving into a new apartment or house, there is often a need to install or replace water meters.

Replacing water meters on your own

• Do you want to voluntarily initiate the replacement of the meter but do not trust outsiders to install it?
• During a scheduled inspection, seals were removed from the meter, and you want to install the meter yourself?
• The water meter did not pass the inspection?

Despite the strong offer of services from utility companies for the replacement and installation of water meters, the consumer has the right to install a certified meter themselves and then call a plumber for inspection and sealing. This can save 400-500 hryvnias and also gain plumbing skills.

Procedure for replacing and installing a water meter

1. Temporarily unscrew the installed bypass pipe, after shutting off the water supply from the riser. If you had complaints about the valve - now is the time to replace it. However, for this, you will have to shut off the riser.
2. According to the rules, the meter is installed as close as possible to the entry of the pipeline into the room, that is, from the riser. And if in apartment buildings strict requirements are not imposed during the inspection due to space constraints (the main thing is that the meter is visible for reading and the possibility of seal damage is excluded), then in private houses the outlet from the riser (from the exit from the floor or wall) should be located a maximum of 20 cm.
3. We assemble the structure in the following order, starting from the riser:
   • ball shut-off valve;
   • coarse filter (the arrow on the product will indicate which way it should be installed). In apartments, it is often not installed (there is no point), but according to the technical specifications, it must be installed;
   • connectors and the meter between them;
   • check valve (so that a clever user does not rewind the meter back).

After starting the assembled system, the subscriber informs the relevant service about this. An inspector should arrive within 3 days, but it is far from a fact that you will not have to wait more than a week, while the water norms will be calculated at the average monthly rate (that is, higher). Therefore, there is another option - to contact private companies that are authorized to issue acts and seal.
