Concern Grows Over Water Meters Recording Usage When Only Air Comes Out

[Eronda]

Residents in our neighbourhood have raised concerns over what appears to be a faulty water metering system, where water meters continue recording consumption even when only air is flowing through the pipes instead of actual water.

Many households report that after prolonged water interruptions, taps release air for several minutes before water returns, yet the meter keeps running during this period. Residents argue that they are being charged for water they have not received, leading to frustration and increased water bills.
