Dropcountr is a free water use portal with a mobile app for tracking home water use to help you save water, time, and money.  All City of Banning water customers that hold a water utility account are able to access their water use through the Dropcountr HOME portal.

The portal allows water utility water customers to better understand and manage their personal water use, compare it against similar and efficient households, reach water use efficiency goals, and access valuable rebates and utility announcements.

Download Dropcountr for free from your device's app store or get started at www.dropcountr.com/Banningca.gov.  You will need your name and account number as it appears on your City of Banning utility bill.

Renter Account Questions

  1. My water bill is addressed to my property manager/HOA, can I sign up for Dropcountr?

Unfortunately, multi-family dwellings are not individually metered and only show total water use for all units. You can still sign up for Dropcountr, but know that you will be unable to view your individual unit’s use. We suggest contacting your landlord or property manager to gain account information – we are unable to give private account information out to anyone but the account holder.
