Important Information About Turning On Water Service
Open Fixtures
When water service is shut off, fixtures can be turned on and unknowingly left in the open position. If this happens, water will begin flowing when we turn on your service, posing a potential risk of flooding.
If no one is present and our technician suspects an open fixture based on movement of the water meter’s flow indicator, the technician will leave your water service off.
Rental Property Owners
Rental property owners and managers should contact LCWSC when a customer moves into or out of the rental property. This will allow LCWSC to keep its records current and insure that bills are sent to the appropriate person.
