Q- If I decide to sell my property, how do I get a final bill? What if I have a tenant moving and want to give him or her a final bill?

the day of the property closing, or on the day your tenant moves out of your property.

Q- What is the current balance due on my account?
- A- Call your Customer Service Center and give your account number or address. We’ll be happy to provide the information you need.

plumber to check for leaks.

along with the employee’s name.
-
Q- What if I experience low water pressure?
- A- The faucet aerator has a screen at the bottom designed to filter out sediment. This screen frequently
becomes clogged with mineral deposits, which restrict water flow. Simply unscrewing the aerator and cleaning the screen
usually corrects the problem. Replacement screens are available at most hardware stores.
