The app is fully compliant with California Code of Regulations UR.2 – Accessibility of Consumer Indication – and NIST Handbook 44, both of which require that meter readings be “readily observable.” With Mainlink’s mobile app, there’s no need for remote meter displays—helping you eliminate unnecessary hardware and avoid significant additional costs.
Eliminate Remote Meter Display With Mainlink's Residential Mobile App
California Code of Regulations UR.2 – Accessibility of Customer Indication – and NIST Handbook 44 require that water meters be “readily observable.” When meters are concealed behind walls, ceilings, or located in mechanical rooms, this has traditionally meant installing a remote meter display to ensure that residents and inspectors can access water usage data without tools or special access.
With Mainlink, there’s no need for costly wall-mounted meter displays. Our mobile app delivers meter data directly to residents’ smartphones—meeting regulatory requirements while saving property owners significant hardware and installation costs.
