From the PostgreSQL side I use the statement

  SET CLIENT_ENCODING TO 'UNICODE'

just after connection to tell it to give me UTF-8.  You could use
other encodings, see the documentation. 

From the other side I don't know that C# expects here, you'd have to
check its ODBC bindings.  It may expect the local 8-bit codepage by
default.
