Water Service Activation Schedule: New customers must complete the above before 2:00 P.M. in order to have their water service activated the next business day. If this is completed by 2:00 P.M. your water service will be activated between the hours of 7:00 A.M. and 10:00 A.M the following business day. Please note that emergency situations (such as main line leak repairs) could delay the connection.

It is the responsibility of the tenant or landlord to make sure all faucets, hose connections, etc., are in the “off” position and pipes are in good repair. It is necessary for a responsible person to be at home during the hours scheduled for connection when water service is turned on or restored after a period of interruption to discover and/or prevent the possibility of any flooding or leaks.
