A guide to your water bill.
The charge includes a fixed amount that is billed each billing period based on the size of the meter as well as for any additional water usage. The Water Charge shows usage in units of gallons or cubic feet depending on the water meter. Water is billed per 100 cubic feet or 1,000 gallons whichever is applicable to your meter.

WISC projects include replacement of aging water mains, valves, hydrants, storage tanks, treatment equipment, control systems and other assets that are needed to provide dependable water service. The cost of completed WISC projects are recovered through a surcharge on customer bills.

Your bill may also include a charge for Maine Water’s optional Linebacker® Protection Program. Linebacker protection is available to residential customers to repair or replace the water service line (no greater than 1.5” in diameter) from the company owned curb valve up to and including the first hand valve before the meter. The fee is $85 on an annual basis.

What is an estimated bill?
A bill is estimated when we have not been able to get an actual meter reading. There are several reasons why your bill may be estimated:
- If the meter is located inside your home, we may not have access or the equipment that allows us to read the meter from outside doesn’t work
- The meter may be damaged
- Water meters operate like a car odometer. If one dial is between digits when the meter reader is there to take a reading, that reading may not be accepted. This is a temporary situation, and it is unlikely to occur on a regular basis.
- Possible failure of the meter reading equipment or cut touch pad wire
If the meter reader left behind a meter reading card because we were not able to gain access to the meter, please follow the card’s instructions for taking the meter reading yourself. This will allow us to issue you an accurate bill. This information can be mailed, emailed to customerservice@mainewater.com or phoned in any time at 1.800.287.1643.
It’s also important to make sure the area near your meter pit or the outside meter reading device is clear of debris and vegetation. If you notice the outside reading device is damaged, please call us at 1.800.287.1643 to schedule a repair.
