Happy Birthday, America! Remember to be safe and stay hydrated!

The American Water Customer Service Center will be closed on Thursday, July 4, 2024, in observance of Independence Day and only accept emergency calls. Regular customer service support will resume on Friday, July 5, 2024, at 7:00 a.m. local time. For your convenience, customers can still make payments, report emergencies, and manage their accounts online through MyWater, our self-service customer portal.  

You might know that human bodies are 60% water, but did you know that our beloved pets’ bodies are 80% water? This means that pets are more in danger of becoming dehydrated. July is #NationalPetHydrationAwarenessMonth and we’ll be sharing some tips to help keep your pets hydrated this summer. #pethydration

July is #SmartIrrigationMonth, and it’s a good time to check which areas your sprinklers are watering. Over 50% of water used outside at home is wasted due to overwatering, watering paved areas, and evaporation. If any paved areas are in its range, try relocating or adjusting it so it’s watering only what actually needs water.

Any operation of a fire hydrant without a permit is illegal. Every open hydrant affects water pressure, which is needed to deliver water to your tap and when firefighters are fighting a fire. Keep them closed and report any open hydrants to us or 911.

Make sure you’re drinking enough water today and every day! Did you know adding a piece of rosemary can enhance your hydration when enjoying a glass of clean and refreshing tap water?
