How to CONNECT Plumbing on YOUR Side of the Water Meter

The 411 on how your water meter is connected to your water service line using a water meter coupling (aka water meter nipple). Here's the good news: while it may be inconvenient to access, it is easier to disconnect than a soldered joint.

Remember, if there is a leak at the meter connection it may just be a failing gasket.

For reference, here is what was compatible with our water meter:

Since it is out of stock online (as of 12/18/2020), you might be able to find it in the store or check out Amazon:

BUT if you are looking at this from a leak perspective and it is leaking on the side between the coupling and the meter you most likely only need a gasket. If so, you can probably pick up a gasket cheapest at your local plumbing supply--not online.
