Complete Water Utility Guide
Island Water Utility Onboarding
Water services on Sanibel are provided by the Island Water Association. To ensure you have reliable access to our high-quality water, new residents must create an account immediately upon moving to the island. You can start the setup process by visiting the association's office or using the digital registration form on their website. Providing clear contact information and your property details is essential. A deposit is required to secure your account, which is applied toward your future bills after you have maintained a positive payment history for a set period.
Monthly Billing and Payment Channels
Managing your monthly bill is straightforward with our user-friendly billing portal. You can view your real-time usage data and process payments securely online using a credit card or electronic transfer. For residents who prefer traditional mail, we include a return envelope with every statement. Please ensure your payment reaches us by the due date to avoid the assessment of late penalties. Our customer service representatives are also available by phone during business hours to assist you with any questions regarding your charges or account balance.
Conservation and Leak Prevention
Water is a precious resource on our island, and we strongly advocate for conservation among all residents. We offer educational resources on installing low-flow appliances and efficient irrigation timers to keep your usage within a reasonable range. If your bill seems abnormally high, check your toilets and outdoor spigots for leaks immediately. Homeowners are responsible for the upkeep of their home's plumbing. Taking quick action on a small leak can save you hundreds of gallons and significantly reduce your monthly utility invoice.
Addressing Delinquent Payments
Timely payment of your utility bill is essential for the continued operation of our island's water network. If you find yourself unable to pay your bill by the deadline, please contact us before the due date to discuss possible payment plans. Ignoring your statement will eventually lead to late charges and potential service termination. Should a water shut-off occur due to non-payment, you will be required to pay the outstanding balance in full, plus any applicable fees, before service is restored to your island residence.
