Since 1991 the City of Elgin has been updating its water meters to an automatic meter reading (AMR) system. This system enables the billing of water usage via telephone lines and minimizes the need for manual meter reading or estimated billing.

Installation of the AMR module is at no cost to the customer and conversion generally takes one and one half hours. If you are interested in setting up an appointment or for more information, please call (847) 931-5630 or email .
