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
- 215-699-4836 for North Wales/Montgomery County service and 267-482-6940 for the Warrington/Bucks County office; NWWA identifies these customer-service numbers for water problems and after-hours/weekend response routing.
- Leak-adjustment policy
- NWWA's 2026 leak-adjustment guidelines treat a loss as significant when usage exceeds 200% of the customer's average usage over the prior year. The request must be made within 45 days of the invoice or leak notice, the leak must be repaired, and documentation such as plumber invoices, receipts, photographs, or other repair proof may be required. Adjustments generally exclude sump pumps, pools, irrigation, theft, neglect, estimated reads, and water that entered the sanitary sewer; sewer relief is considered only when the leaked water did not enter the sanitary sewer. Approval is discretionary under Appendix K.
