The Town of Olds is moving into Phase Two of the Water Meter Replacement Program, an important part of the community’s ongoing work to modernize and strengthen water infrastructure. Beginning this fall, approximately 820 more homes and businesses will receive smart water meters, replacing older mechanical models with more accurate and reliable technology. Since 2024, meters in 730 homes in Olds have already been replaced.

Smart meters help residents detect leaks early, improve accuracy, and support long-term water sustainability.
