a ) This application includes a $1,600 fee for a standard 5/8” x 3/4” residential meter. For larger service sizes, see the chart below.

b) Where sanitary sewers are available, there is a $500 connect fee for those receiving residential sewer service. The connect fee for commercial sewer services is $1000. In certain areas sewer interceptor capitol recovery contributions will also apply. Please contact our office to determine if your location is in these areas.

c) After proper documentation and fees have been provided to Warren Water, our representative will provide you with a wooden stake to mark where you want your meter to be installed. Generally, installation is completed by our staff within two weeks of receiving the application.

Requests for Larger Meters

Requests for water meters larger than the standard 5/8″ x 3/4″ (standard residential) require WCWD engineering approval to ensure proper sizing. An estimate of the fee for this construction will be provided by WCWD and must be paid by the customer prior to installation. Any overpayment will be refunded by WCWD, and any underpayment will be charged to the customer.

Meter and Service Line Location

The wooden stake provided by the WCWD to mark the location for water meter installation must be set on the property before installation can be completed. If the stake has not been set when our representatives arrive on site to install the meter, the meter will not be installed, and an additional fee will be charged for the extra visit required.

It is important that you not install the service line to the meter location until after the water meter has been installed. In some circumstances it may not be possible for us to set the meter at the exact location of the wooden stake due to other underground utilities that may already be installed, problems with rock or other issues we may encounter during the installation. If you have any questions, please call our office at (270)842-0052.

Please note that you should not install a service line until your new meter has been installed.
