I have about 8 battery operated water detectors in my house located on the floor under toilets, sinks, refrigerator, washer, and water heater. These will sound an alarm similar to a smoke detector when there is a leak. You can buy them on Amazon for about 10 dollars each. It is an easy and cheap way to go. You just set the unit on the floor or in a sink cabinet.

INCORRECT-> (I believe it straps on the water line, preferably near the meter, but not onto the meter itself.)
CORRECT -> I was surprised to learn that it does strap to the meter itself. Now I need to learn more about how it actually works.
The Flume device is about six inches long. I believe I have enough space in my meter box but I haven't dug the ten years of grime out of it to see for sure.
Do you know if the water company has a policy about customers placing the Flume device in the meter box?
