Los Angeles DWP Sub-Meter

For All Your Plumbing Needs

Background

The Los Angeles City Council has authorized the City of Los Angeles sewer system customers to install a water sub-meter to calculate the actual amount of water that goes back down the drain. Up until recently your sewage bill was based on a percentage of the volume of water delivered to you through the City meter. An estimate is then use to determine the amount of water that drains into your yard. With the new water sub-meter the guess work is removed. The private sub-meter will substitute estimated data for the actual. There for, you will only have to pay for the water that actually goes back into the sewer.
