My AccountWater Line Protection Program
Water service line leaks can cost homeowners thousands of dollars to repair and are typically not covered by homeowners' insurance. As your home ages, the risk of a water service line leak increases.
Beginning in January 2025, Water District account holders will have the option to purchase a reduced-cost warranty from American Water Resources (AWR) to help minimize or eliminate the cost of leak repairs to their property's water service line (the pipe that runs from the water meter to the house). The Water District partnered with AWR to provide an exclusive rate of $3.99 per month for all single-family residential account holders who own their home, and the LVVWD will reimburse the first year of protection for the first 50,000 account holders who enroll with AWR.
Enrollment in the American Water Resources Water Line Protection Program is available as an optional benefit for single-family homeowners. AWR will process claims, coordinate repairs, and collect program fees. To enroll in the Water Line Protection Program and learn how you can be reimbursed for the first year of protection, visit American Water Resources.
LVVWD negotiated a below-market rate for our residential water account holders and is not accepting any financial compensation from AWR.
LVVWD's First Year Reimbursement Promotion: AWR is not responsible for the Promotion or reimbursement payments. The Promotion is subject to change or termination at LVVWD's sole discretion. Only eligible LVVWD account holders who own the enrolled property can receive the Promotion. Customers who receive the Promotion will be notified by LVVWD; customers who are not eligible for the Promotion will not be notified. Reimbursement will be issued in the form of a check from LVVWD to the address on the customer's LVVWD account. For monthly-paying customers that receive the Promotion, the reimbursement will be issued within 90 days after twelve months of active enrollment. Customers who pay annually at the start of their term will be reimbursed within six months of enrollment.
Leak Adjustment Program
LVVWD single-family residential customers who incur an exceptionally high bill due to a leak may qualify for the LVVWD Leak Adjustment Program after fixing the leak. Additionally, customers who receive Excessive Use Charges as a result of a leak may be eligible to have the portion of those charges resulting from that leak reversed if they make repairs in a timely manner.
Customer is eligible if all the following conditions exist:
- There is a minimum of one month of consumption recorded at the property prior to the month in which the leak/malfunction occurred. This baseline month will be the same month in the previous year, if it exists, or the month prior to the leak/malfunction.
- The Average Daily Usage (ADU) has increased by at least 50 percent from the baseline month.
- The leak/malfunction is repaired within 60 days from initial notification.
- The customer has not previously participated in the program in the last 12 months at the address where the leak/malfunction occurred.
- The customer applied for the program within three months of the leak/malfunction repair.
- A Leak Adjustment Program Form is signed by an authorized individual.
Customer is not eligible if any of the following conditions exist:
- There is not a minimum of one month of consumption recorded at the property prior to the time the leak/malfunction occurred.
- The leak/malfunction is not repaired within 60 days of initial notification.
- The customer participated in the program at the same address in the last 12 months.
- The ADU has not increased by at least 50 percent from the baseline month.
- The customer did not apply for the program within three months of the leak/malfunction repair.
- A Leak Adjustment Program Form was not signed by an authorized individual.
- Repairs were not made.
- A completed Leak Adjustment Program application is not returned within 90 days of the initial request.
Once the required information has been submitted, the account will be reviewed to determine if the customer is eligible for financial relief and, if so, to calculate the adjustment amount based upon the leak volume.
To capture all the leak/malfunction consumption and accurately calculate an adjustment, it may be necessary to wait for the next bill to print. An adjustment may take up to 3 bill cycles to reflect on the account.
Adjustments may include a reduction of 50 percent of the volumetric charges for the water use attributable to the leak, and/or an excessive use charge adjustment, but only for the portion of water use attributable to the leak.
