Water Distribution

Overview

The Water Distribution Division maintains and repairs over 100 miles of main lines and numerous water valves that provide the flow of potable water. The Division reads and maintains over 4.000 water meters, provides the utility billing division with monthly billing information, and provides the citizens of Seagoville with the best possible service. The Division also maintains over 500 fire hydrants.

Customer Service

The Division routinely responds to complaints of low pressure, volume, and unexplained high water usage. Calibrated test equipment is used in the field to determine if the correct pressure and volume is being delivered to the meter.

Water Meter Reading

Meters are read once per month (two cycles) by two meter readers.

Each meter has a history that is continually updated when the meters are read. If a reading entry is higher than the history average, an alarm sounds and the reader must read the meter again to ensure the correct amount is entered.
