Who is responsible for the failure of the civil code water meter?

Legal analysis: according to the situation that the water meter is broken in civil law, the property is responsible for the leakage of the pipeline in front of the water meter, and the household is responsible for the leakage of the pipeline behind the water meter. If the leaking part of the water pipe is behind the water meter, that is, the leaking part of the water pipe belongs to the family and is not within the scope of the public. If the water meter at home leaks, you should bear the maintenance cost yourself, but you can't collect the losses caused by the leakage. However, if the pipeline in front of the water meter leaks, the property is responsible.

Legal basis: Article 281 of the Civil Law of People's Republic of China (PRC), the maintenance fund of the building and its ancillary facilities belongs to the owner. With the consent of the owner, it can be used for local maintenance, renewal and transformation of elevators, roofs, external walls and barrier-free facilities. The collection and use of maintenance funds for buildings and their ancillary facilities shall be announced regularly. In case of emergency, if the building and its ancillary facilities need to be repaired, the owners' assembly or the owners' committee may apply for the maintenance funds of the building and its ancillary facilities according to law.
