Case Study: Water Authority of Dickson County improves leak detection and efficiency with Badger Meter

Water Authority of Dickson County converts 20,000+ meters with Badger Meter to improve leak detection

The Water Authority of Dickson County (WADC), a consolidated utility serving over 20,000 customers, faced challenges with meter longevity, accuracy, and the inefficiency of its manual meter reading process. Seeking a more strategic solution for leak detection and time management, WADC partnered with Badger Meter to deploy its Recordall disc meters and an automated meter reading system.

Badger Meter implemented its ORION Migratable endpoints for a drive-by AMR system, which eliminated the need for manual reads. This solution provided WADC with detailed hourly and daily water usage data, drastically improving leak detection and reducing water loss. The vendor's technology also set the foundation for a future migration to the BEACON SaaS platform, significantly increasing the utility's operational efficiency and customer service capabilities.
