Until now householders have received limited information on their water consumption patterns. Smart water metering presents far more detailed information resources and the opportunity to transform the e xisting flow of information to consumers for improved efficiencies in water usage. However, a balance is needed between delivering current minimal information and the ful l detail smart metering can provide on time of use and end uses. It is critical to understand what information is of value to householders. This paper presents results from a recent householder survey at MidCoast Water {N5W}, which improves our understanding of the customer perspective on water consumption information.
