Meter Install Request Form

If you need a permanent water meter installed, please click the Meter Request Form button below and complete the online form.

This form is to be completed when requesting installation of a new, permanent, water meter in the Marana Water service area. Please review the information on the Establishing Service webpage for administrative fees and the Impact Fees for each installation.

Upon receipt of this application and creation of the account, an email with the account number will be sent. All requests are received and processed electronically Monday - Friday from 8 AM to 4 PM. Any requests made after 4 PM will be processed the following business day. Requested install dates must be within 30 days of the date the application is submitted and have 24-hour advanced notice (excluding weekends and holidays) minimum. Payment for impact fee invoices can be taken through our Finance Department. There is a limit on the credit card payments, therefore water and sewer, where applicable, impact fees may need to be paid via check or wire transfer. We can accept check payments at the front desk, but will still require this form to invoice accordingly. Once payment is received, the install will be scheduled as close to the requested date as possible, excluding holidays and weekends.

  • Please note: All irrigation, fire line and commercial meters require a backflow assembly. Complete the Backflow Permit(PDF, 410KB) and submit it to BackFlow@MaranaAZ.gov. The permit request for the backflow must occur at the same time as the meter install request. 

Disclaimer: Due to supply chain shortages, some water meters and/or transponders may be on back-order. Once we receive the inventory we will install meters and transponders based on the date the request was received and if payment has been processed.

All of our online forms work best using Google Chrome, Microsoft Edge, and Mozilla Firefox.

Meter Request Form

Applications for bulk water and construction meters are at the bottom of the page.

Marana Water will install a meter, register, and transponder upon request. The requester will then be charged a monthly fee for water and sewer, where appropriate, from that point forward. Should any issue arise with the installation due to incomplete construction of the meter box, the meter will not be installed and the requester will be charged $40.00. The requester will be notified of the problem and a return installation will be scheduled.

Here are some reasons why a meter would not be installed.

  • The lot number or address is not clearly identified.
  • The meter box is not set to finished grade.
  • The meter box is not clean of any debris
  • The meter box does not have an accompanying lid.
  • The angle meter stop is not 6-8 inches from final grade.
  • The angle meter stop is not plumb and level.
  • A proper reducer is not installed. 

Bulk Water and Construction Meters

Marana Water provides bulk water services through our standpipe system and our hydrant meters. The standpipe system is located at 12775 N Sanders Rd. Both of these will require the appropriate application form and deposit. The forms are below, and the fees associated can be found on our Rates and Fees page. Please complete the form below and Marana Water will contact you via email once the initialization process is complete.
