The Village of Riverside announced on Dec. 15 that AquaHawk, a web-based customer portal, is now available to residents. The new platform allows users to access detailed water consumption data and receive notifications about their usage patterns.
AquaHawk aims to help residents better understand their water use and prevent unexpected high bills by providing real-time data and customizable alerts. Through the portal, users can view both historical and current water usage down to an hourly level, set up alerts for potential leaks or spikes in consumption, and compare estimated billing between official meter reads. The system also offers comparisons with past usage and weather data.
According to the announcement, “This is a great opportunity for residents to learn more about their water usage and catch leaks before they drive up your water bill.” Residents interested in learning more can visit the Village’s website or register directly through the AquaHawk login page.
