The valve in front of the water meter is rusty and broken. Is it installed by the property or the water supply company?

The valve in front of the water meter is a part of the water supply pipeline, which is responsible for controlling the water flow and water pressure measured and maintained by the water meter. If the valve rusts, it is usually replaced by property maintenance. Because the responsibility of the water supply company is mainly to supply water and maintain the normal operation of the water supply pipeline, the maintenance of the valve usually belongs to the category of property maintenance, so the problem of valve rust is handled by the property. Of course, if the valve damage is caused by the quality problem of the water supply pipeline itself, the water supply company may also participate in solving it. The specific situation should be determined according to local management regulations and agreements.
