To protect public health during the pandemic, WSSC Water suspended non-emergency, in-home work, which includes reading inside meters. As a result, you may receive an estimated bill based on your prior year’s usage during the same billing period. Please see the FAQs for detailed information.
Your bill will clearly indicate if it is an estimated bill:
Please pay your estimated bill. Once we have obtained an actual meter reading, we will cancel any estimated bills and rebill the account using the meter reading provided.
If you have an inside water meter and received an estimated bill, please contact us with your meter reading as soon as possible. An actual meter reading allows you to better manage your water use and can determine if you have a leak, which can lead to high bills. Learn how to submit a water meter reading.
