ABSTRACT:
A electronic water utility monitoring system including a control box for the system positionable within the house of a user. Further provided is a first electrical line from the control box to a source of potential within the house. Associated therewith is a second electrical line from the control box to a water line for the house. Also included is a flow metering device mounted on the second electrical line to determine the rate of flow of the water within the water line. Finally, an electrical circuit is included for controlling the box. Such electric circuit has a port for allowing coupling with a conventional computer thereby allowing the storing of the rate of flow of water and further calculating the amount of water consumed over a predetermined amount of time and the price of water consumed.
