Consumer Advice

Our customer service department is available 8:30 a.m. - 4:30 p.m., Monday through Friday, to answer your questions. But what if you want an answer to a question at 9:00 p.m. at night? Or what if you prefer to surf the web, rather than pick up a telephone? We make it easy for you. Our Consumer Advice section answers your most commonly asked account questions.

  1. How do I read my residential water meter?
  2. How do I read my bill?
  3. How do I find a leak?
  4. What is a submeter, and how do I get one?
  5. Can you tell me where my water meter and touch pad are located?
  6. How can I avoid frozen meters and pipes?
