Water Meter needed

[heffneil]

Guys I need some references for some water meters for my property. I have bough several from watermeters.com and they have all been a problem. I have attempted to contact the owner via phone and email and he is completely unresponsive. When I call there they screen my calls now. The owner of that company isn't willing to stand behind his product. My second of three meters has started leaking and I need to replace it. They are all non-electronic and I would LOVE to upgrade them to one that I can monitor from within the house or from some system. Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

Hi Neil

I have the Omega FTB8007B. It comes in two automation flavors; reed relay (unpowered), or with a hall-effect sensor for longer life (but needs ~12VDC). I have the version with the hall effect. Looks like quality stuff and Omega is an industrial strength company. No leaks in 2.5 years or any other problems. Still not hooked it up to my Brultech's pulse counter. Cost is about $170 for a 3/4" line and $280 for a 1" line. All the info is on their web site.
