Due to historical and practical reasons, many urban residents in our country use a common water meter, which is called the common total meter for short. This kind of situation especially appears in the unit, dormitory or courtyard house. There are some outstanding problems in the general list of urban residential users sharing:

 

Firstly, it is difficult to accurately measure the water consumption of each household of urban residents by sharing the master meter. In the process of using water for urban residents, due to the aging of equipment and the damage of underground pipes, there is a phenomenon of running, flowing, dripping and leaking, which makes the water consumption calculated by the common meter generally inconsistent with the total water consumption of all residents, that is, the water consumption calculated by the common meter is larger than the total water consumption of all residents, which is called water consumption. Considering that it is not clear which household or section of pipeline or gate valve produces the water consumption, the water consumption can only be shared equally by all urban residents, otherwise the water company will bear the losses and generate losses. Some residential users have to share the average value of water consumption even when they have been away for two months. If a drop of water is not used, they have to share the average value of water consumption, which is obviously unreasonable. It will also greatly damage the initiative and enthusiasm of residents to save water, and it is not conducive to the saving and utilization of urban water resources.

 

Secondly, the property right of the pipeline valve shared by urban residents is not clear, which is easy to delay the rush repair time and reduce the service quality of the water company. Many urban users have long pipes and valves to each family after sharing the master list, and these facilities are often owned by the unit or property. When the pipeline after sharing the master meter is damaged, the water company is inconvenient to rush to repair due to the property right problem, and the unit or property often does not have the corresponding technical personnel and construction maintenance equipment, resulting in the rush to repair not in time, making the urban residents very dissatisfied with the service quality of the water company, the unit and the property company, sometimes there will be disputes, affecting the unit or The security and stability of the community.

 

Finally, the water users need to pay all the water fees in time every month. If one user fails to pay the water fees in time, it will directly affect the supply of everyone's tap water, and even cause the water company to stop running water, which is very easy to cause conflicts and produce hidden dangers of disharmony.

 

From the above analysis, it can be seen that it is very necessary to reconstruct the water meter for urban residents. It not only makes the property rights of water supply facilities such as pipes and valves clear and the responsibilities clear, which is convenient for timely maintenance, but also makes it easy to find the root cause and the responsible subject of the phenomenon of running, emitting, dripping and leaking. It basically puts an end to the wrangling between each other and prevents the occurrence of conflicts and disputes. In addition, it also objectively improves the service quality of water companies, increases the recognition of urban residents to the service of water companies, and promotes the construction of a harmonious society. In a country that is extremely short of water resources, the transformation of water meter one by one is conducive to saving water resources, and can further promote the completion of energy-saving goals and tasks.
