No one wants it to happen but when temperatures get cold water meters can freeze. One way to help prevent your water meter from freezing is to make sure that the meter box lid is closed and fitted properly on the meter box. The meter box lid helps prevent the meter from freezing by keeping the colder air out and the warmer ground temperatures in. If your meter box lid is damaged or missing, contact HCWD2 at (270) 737-1056 and we will promptly replace the meter box lid for free. Water meter boxes are usually located in your front yard towards the road and depending on the model of the box, can be either square or a circle.

Here are some other ways to help prevent the freezing temperatures from impacting your water pipes:

Open the doors to cabinets and vanities to allow warmer room temperatures to circulate around the pipes.

Allow a small trickle of water to run through pipes to keep water moving. The cost of the extra water is typically lower than the cost of repairing a broken pipe.

Protect pipes in garages and crawlspaces by insulating pipes and keeping doors closed.

Disconnect garden hoses from outside faucets and use insulated faucet covers.

Know where the shut off valve for your house is located in case a pipe does freeze and burst you can quickly shut the water off. ... See MoreSee Less

Wyatt Miller has been a valued member of the team since joining Hardin County Water District #2 on March 25, 2024. In a relatively short amount of time, Wyatt has made a strong impression through his hands-on skills, dedication to learning, and commitment to doing the job the right way.

In his day-to-day role, Wyatt works on a construction crew laying new water lines while also helping maintain tools, trucks, and equipment. His work requires precision, teamwork, and adaptability, qualities Wyatt brings to every task. When asked about the accomplishments he’s most proud of, Wyatt points out the variety of experiences he’s gained so far. From fixing numerous leaks to being part of a line-laying project and earning his CDL, each achievement reflects his growth and willingness to take on new challenges.

What Wyatt finds most fulfilling about his work is the sense of accomplishment that comes from solving problems with his own two hands. He takes pride in seeing a job through from start to finish and knowing his work makes a real difference. Wyatt credits much of his motivation to the strong mentors he’s had along the way. Learning from experienced coworkers has inspired him to uphold high standards and ensure every job is done correctly.

One of his favorite memories comes from his time on the leak crew, where he enjoyed both the work and the camaraderie. Spending nearly two years with that team left a lasting impression and plenty of good memories.

When it comes to what he enjoys most about the job, Wyatt appreciates the problem-solving aspect, the opportunity to think creatively about how to tackle specific tasks, and the chance to learn something new every day.

If he could switch roles for a day, Wyatt says he’d take the job of Merle Travis, just to spend the day playing guitar. Within Hardin County Water District #2, however, he’d be interested in working as an operator to gain more experience with digging and operating equipment.

Wyatt’s positive attitude, curiosity, and strong work ethic make him a great asset to the team. We’re glad to have him and look forward to seeing where his career continues to grow. ... See MoreSee Less
