Who do I contact if I have a leak?

If you determine you have a leak, you would need to take steps to repair it or contact someone who would be able to. The District cannot make any recommendations on who to hire.

What do I do if I have a high bill?

The District billing runs a month behind. When you receive your bill verify the usage dates on the top right section of the statement to help determine if you were using additional water at that time. During summer months higher usage may be caused by: pools, watering (gardens, flowers, trees, grass), hoses that have been left running, extra watering for animals, sprinkler systems, etc. During winter months it could be: faucets left dripping for cold weather, extra watering of animals due to frozen water conditions, or furnace humidifiers. If you still cannot account for the usage, begin checking for a leak.

My pressure is low, what do I do?

If you suddenly have low pressure, check your meter to see if a leak has occurred. Water softeners can also cause low pressure if they are having an issue. If we are experiencing any leaks or if work is being done, information is available online at our website, Facebook, and Twitter pages . If you do not see anything relating to you, call the office.

What are common places for leaks to occur?

Common culprits for leaks are toilets, sinks, anywhere you have a connection in the water line, livestock waterers or water hoses left on.
