Billing and account research from public material
Provider-specific research notes are displayed separately from fields that contain only an unavailable-information marker. Read qualifiers in each note and verify current account terms with the provider.
- Billing frequency
- Monthly. HPUD's bill explains a fixed base rate plus usage charge for each current billing cycle.
- Rate structure
- Base rate plus usage rate. Effective April 1, 2026, the residential water schedule is $10.52 base plus $10.00 per 1,000 gallons, with Tennessee sales tax; residential sewer is $14.44 base plus $13.58 per 1,000 gallons through 12,000 gallons and no charge above 12,000 gallons, with a possible $8.83 monthly grinder-pump charge.
- Residential cost reference
- About $152.54 before sales tax at 7,000 gallons for standard water and sewer: $10.52 + (7 x $10.00) water plus $14.44 + (7 x $13.58) sewer. HPUD's 2026 customer examples show approximately $64.22 water at 5,000 gallons and $87.37 wastewater at 5,000 gallons under the new schedule, so actual total depends on the bill's meter usage and tax.
- Wastewater and sewer calculation
- Wastewater is not separately metered; HPUD bases sewer on customer water usage. The residential sewer base is $14.44, usage is $13.58 per 1,000 gallons through 12,000 gallons, and no additional usage charge applies above 12,000 gallons; grinder-pump service adds $8.83 monthly when applicable.
- Meter reading
- HPUD uses multiple meter types and calculates usage from prior and current readings in hundreds of gallons. The reviewed sources do not identify a universal AMI/AMR platform or fixed transmission cadence; the monthly statement controls.
- New-account deposit
- HPUD's public FAQ states that deposits are applied to the final bill, but the reviewed current pages do not expose a universal startup amount or exact credit-check waiver/release schedule.
