purpose, that becomes necessary; the right is hereby reserved to cut off water at any
time when deemed necessary. Defective service lines must be promptly repaired; otherwise

liable for the expense and to induce him to make the necessary installations, repairs or
alterations; but in cases where, after reasonable effort, it is found impossible or im-
practicable to notify the owner or party liable, or where the owner reports inability to
obtain a plumber to install a service line, or where the owner or party fails or refuses

inspect or repair meters, pipes or fixtures or to investigate the use of water. Where a
meter is located in an approved meter box or housing in the parking or sidewalk, the
consumer or owner of the property in which such meter is placed shall be responsible for
its protection and preservation and any damage sustained by such meter shall be charged
to the consumer or owner of the property served in the same manner as prescribed for
repairs to service lines. Whenever a meter is damaged by hot water or steam or by
improper method of thawing when frozen, the cost of the repairs shall be chargeable to
the property in the same manner as prescribed for repairs to services. In case any meter
fails to register for any cause, the amount charged for water during such period shall be
est$mated by the Superintendent, such estimate to be based on the average amount registered
during a like preceding period and such other information as is available. (R. 0. 1948,
