What is the box attached to the side of my house?
The Division of Water maintains one small electronic box that is attached to the side of your residence for the purpose of obtaining water meter readings. This unit is called a remote transmitting unit (RTU). The RTU allows us to obtain your water meter reading without having to go inside your home.
