Take Control of Your Water Use with EyeOnWater App
The City of Dunedin is encouraging water customers to take advantage of a free tool that can help them take control of their water use and better understand their monthly utility bills. The EyeOnWater app is available to all Dunedin utility customers, providing access to water usage information from a smartphone, tablet or computer.
The free app works with the City's smart water meter system, allowing customers to track hourly, daily and monthly water consumption and even detect potential leaks. By monitoring their water use, customers can make informed decisions about consumption, identify opportunities to conserve water and potentially save money on their utility bills.
