To change the checking account from which your Carmel Utility bill payment is drafted, download the <\/span>bank draft form<\/a> and attach a voided check from your new checking account. Please mail the completed form as soon as possible. You may also want to call the Customer Service office to stop draft from your old checking account if it is closed. Draft attempted from a closed account will incur an insufficient funds fee of $33.00. Please allow four weeks for bank draft to resume. Once draft has begun, “Bank Draft” will appear in the amount due box on the bill form.<\/p>\n

If one of the bills has disconnect notice printed on it, then that amount is the minimum that must be paid to continue receiving water and sewer service. The bill without the disconnect notice message shows then entire balance owed on your water and\/or sewer account.<\/p>\n

The mailing address for Carmel Utilities is: P.O. Box 109 Carmel, IN 46082.<\/span><\/p>\n

There are several reasons this may happen. First examine the usage on your bill. It may be that consumption has increased. Examine your payment records. It may be that last month’s payment was inadvertently forgotten.<\/p>\n

[\/et_pb_accordion_item][et_pb_accordion_item title=”How far in advance do I need to notify the utility of a new service request or service cancellation?” _builder_version=”4.11.4″ _module_preset=”default” custom_margin=”||||false|false” custom_padding=”15px||15px||false|false” global_colors_info=”{}” open=”off”]<\/p>\n

Carmel Utilities needs 24 hours notice prior to establishing new service or the cancellation of existing service. Please note that either request can be performed Monday through Friday.<\/span><\/p>\n

[\/et_pb_accordion_item][et_pb_accordion_item title=”Why can’t the date my bill is due be changed?” _builder_version=”4.11.4″ _module_preset=”default” custom_margin=”||||false|false” custom_padding=”15px||15px||false|false” global_colors_info=”{}” open=”off”]<\/p>\n

Carmel Utilities bills according to geographic location. This is necessary because of the time needed to read water meters in each geographic area. Bills are sent out 6 times each month according to these geographic areas for a complete billing of the city.<\/span><\/p>\n

[\/et_pb_accordion_item][et_pb_accordion_item title=”What is summer sewer relief and when does it start?” _builder_version=”4.11.4″ _module_preset=”default” custom_margin=”||||false|false” custom_padding=”15px||15px||false|false” global_colors_info=”{}” open=”off”]<\/p>\n

Summer sewer relief runs from May (June bills) through October (November bills). During this period customers are billed their winter average for the sewer portion of the bill. To calculate the winter average, the six winter month usages are collected, the high reading and low reading are removed and the remaining four readings are averaged. This average is the most the customer will be charged for sewer during the summer. Customers who are new and do not have enough usage history are given the average usage for their area.<\/span><\/p>\n

[\/et_pb_accordion_item][et_pb_accordion_item title=”I have a soggy area in my yard, is this a sign of a leak?” _builder_version=”4.11.4″ _module_preset=”default” custom_margin=”||||false|false” custom_padding=”15px||15px||false|false” global_colors_info=”{}” open=”off”]<\/p>\n

An easy way to begin that investigation is to locate the meter pit; which is usually in the front yard. If the wet spot in the yard lies in a line between either the road and meter pit or pit and house, then it is possible that there could be a leak in the service line. If the soggy area is elsewhere in the yard, the soggy area is most likely ground water. It is always a good idea to perform a regular leak detection (link) regimen.<\/span><\/p>\n

If your usage increases over time, but your habits have not changed,\u00a0it is possible that you may have a water leak. Most water leaks are caused by toilets. Please click on the following link for our leak detection information. Please<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>click here<\/a>\u00a0for a copy of our leak detection document. Carmel Utilities encourages a regular leak detection regimen.<\/span><\/p>\n

Carmel Utilities does not heat water prior to distribution. You may have a problem with your water heater. Contact a licensed professional to evaluate your water heater.<\/p>\n

[\/et_pb_accordion_item][et_pb_accordion_item title=”What is the water pressure in Carmel?” _builder_version=”4.11.4″ _module_preset=”default” custom_margin=”||||false|false” custom_padding=”15px||15px||false|false” global_colors_info=”{}” open=”on”]<\/p>\n

Water pressure varies somewhat according the geographic area. The average water pressure in Carmel is 60psi.<\/span><\/p>\n

[\/et_pb_accordion_item][et_pb_accordion_item title=”What is the water hardness?” _builder_version=”4.11.4″ _module_preset=”default” custom_margin=”||||false|false” custom_padding=”15px||15px||false|false” hover_enabled=”0″ global_colors_info=”{}” open=”off” sticky_enabled=”0″]<\/p>\n

Carmel Utilities softens water to within 8 to 10 grains of hardness prior to distribution. The hardness of the water may vary especially in times of high demand. If you were a previous Indianapolis Water Customer, and have not yet been converted to Carmel Water, the water you receive still comes from Indianapolis Water and has not been softened.<\/span><\/p>\n
