Information on Seasonal Water Meters

Customers who occupy their properties for summer months only (May 1 to November 1) will be classified as seasonal.
 
Seasonal meters must be installed in the spring and removed each fall. When the meter is removed in the fall, it is stored in a temperature controlled environment to prevent from freezing.  Please note that water meters always have water in them. Please contact the water department to make your installation and removal appointments. Phone: 978-465-1430 Email: watersewer@salisburyma.gov
 

 
Frozen Meter Information
 
Most water meters are located in basements, crawl spaces, and other unheated areas where low temperatures can easily cause them to freeze and, in some cases, burst or leak.
Your meter may be at risk of freezing if the temperature outside is below freezing and the location of your meter is exposed to this cold air. 
Insulating your meter, adding a meter jacket, or wrapping pipes and meter with heat tape are very simple ways to protect the meter from freezing.

Remember that while the Town of Salisbury Water Division owns the water meter, it is the responsibility of the homeowner to keep the meter from freezing.
See Rule No 10 Meters and Meter Installation of the Water Rules and Regulations.
 
The cost of a frozen meter is: 
Regular Hours (7:00am – 3:00pm) - $75.00 plus the cost of the meter
Night/Weekend Call out - $150.00 plus the cost of the meter
