Relief research for this provider
The notes below may document a route, rule, or explicit public-information limit. General preparation steps are not represented as utility policy.
- Emergency reporting route
- 913-895-1800, published as WaterOne's 24-hour emergency contact.
- Leak-adjustment policy
- WaterOne rules require the customer to show that the estimated lost water was at least 25% of normal consumption. For a monthly bill, the adjusted bill includes normal monthly consumption plus one-half of the first 25,000 gallons lost and one-half of gallons above 25,000. For a bimonthly bill, normal two-month consumption is used, one-half of the first 25,000 gallons lost is added, and one-fourth of gallons above 25,000 is added. The combined gallons are then billed under the rate schedule in effect; the rules include proof and filing procedures for the leak.
- Utility assistance program
- WaterOne supports Johnson County utility assistance for low-income households, but the reviewed official 2026 pages do not state a universal per-household award cap or senior/disabled-veteran discount.
- State and federal aid connection
- WaterOne's reviewed material references Johnson County utility assistance, a local affordability pathway. It does not identify a guaranteed 2026 LIHWAP application URL or federal benefit cap; customers should ask WaterOne or Johnson County for current referrals.
