WaterSmart is a free tool available to City of Plainview residents using City utilities. It is designed to improve water efficiency by offering tools for bill payment, usage tracking, and immediate notification on water-related issues.
Through WaterSmart, alerts can be set for issues such as busted pipes or higher-than-normal water usage to help prevent unexpectedly high water bills. The platform also provides tools to monitor water consumption, including the amount used for showers, toilet flushes, washing machines, and yard care. To lower water costs, customers can review detailed usage reports and identify areas where water can be conserved. During times away from home, expected water usage can be recorded, and WaterSmart will send a notification if consumption exceeds the set limit.
As colder nights approach, the risk of frozen or burst pipes increases. WaterSmart detects these problems immediately and sends an alert, allowing prompt action to resolve the issue before it impacts the water bill.
