There are many reasons for the rotation of water meters in some residents ’homes. The main reasons are as follows:
1. Due to reasons such as infrequent occupancy in the home, the air in the pipeline is not completely exhausted, and the water meter is affected by the unvented gas in the pipeline, which causes the water pressure to fluctuate. Water hammer causes water pressure fluctuations;
2. Decorate the house or change the direction of the pipeline, causing air to enter the pipeline;
3. Install a booster pump at home, and air will enter the pipeline when pumping;
4. There are undetected leaks in the water supply pipes and facilities behind the water meter.
If there are several reasons, it is recommended that the air in the pipeline can be purged in the following ways:
1. First you can exhaust after 9 or 10 o'clock in the evening. Please turn on all the faucets in the house, including faucets and showers that you don't normally use. Keep the water on for more than one minute, so that the water will discharge the excess air in the pipes. If you feel wasted, you can connect the basin with the amount of water drained. You can observe the next day, if the situation is better, you can continue to operate, the situation of the water meter rotation will disappear;
2. If you don't use water for a long time, please close the valve temporarily after the meter and open it again when you normally use water; at the same time, you should periodically exhaust the pipeline to reduce the formation of air bags in the pipeline;
3. If there is no improvement after operating according to the above methods, you can call the service hotline of the water supply enterprise in the area, and the water supply department will arrange professional staff to come to the site for inspection.
