As the temperature drops, it's important to prevent the water lines from freezing. To avoid any inconvenience, please keep a small, constant drip going in your home and keep cabinet doors open if temperatures get below freezing. This is to prevent water lines from freezing and bursting. If the water lines freeze, it will be nearly impossible for our workers to defrost them. Thank you for your cooperation in ensuring that we have an uninterrupted water supply during the winter season.
Water Emergency After-Hours and Weekend Charge
Please be informed that homeowners will be charged $75 on their next utility bill if our employees are called in after hours or on the weekend for any kind of water emergency. We appreciate your understanding and cooperation in this matter and thank you for your continued support.
