4. Enter the credentials requested by the payment provider.

New Customer Registration

If you have not previously used the payment service, follow the enrollment instructions displayed by the authorized payment provider. Keep your latest statement available because account-identifying information may be required.

The utility’s website also provides instructions for signing up for electronic billing. Electronic statements can help reduce the chance of overlooking a paper bill, especially if your mailing address has changed.

Having Trouble Logging In?

• Check that you opened the payment system from the official Huntsville Water Utilities website.
• Confirm the account information matches your bill.
• Use the payment provider’s password recovery option if available.
• Check whether your latest payment has been recorded before submitting another payment.
• Contact the Huntsville water office at 479-738-6929 if you cannot access your account.

The official website does not publicly specify a universal username format or registration PIN requirement. Follow the instructions shown in the payment system rather than entering credentials intended for a different Huntsville utility.

Other Ways to Pay Your Huntsville Water Bill

If you prefer not to make a one-time online card payment, Huntsville Water Utilities also provides automatic bank draft service and an in-person office with a drive-through window.

Automatic Bank Draft: How to Enroll

Automatic bank draft is useful if you want to avoid repeated card-processing charges and reduce the risk of forgetting your monthly bill.

1. Open the official Bank Draft Authorization page.
2. Complete the requested account and banking information.
3. Submit the authorization according to the utility’s instructions.
4. Confirm that enrollment is active before your next due date.
5. Check your bank statement when the first withdrawal is scheduled.

Huntsville Water Utilities announced that bank draft processing would move to approximately the 4th of each month beginning in December 2023. Some older information on the utility’s website still refers to the 8th. Confirm the current withdrawal date directly with the office before relying on automatic payment.

Water Bill Due Dates, Late Fees and Disconnection Rules

Huntsville Water Utilities has a specific monthly billing schedule. Missing the due date can lead to a 10% penalty and eventual service disconnection.

If the scheduled penalty or shutoff date falls on a weekend or holiday, the utility states that processing generally occurs on the following business day.

Huntsville Water Reconnection Fees in 2026

If service is disconnected for nonpayment, the utility requires payment of the outstanding balance along with applicable delinquency and reconnection charges before service is restored.

How to Restore Disconnected Service

1. Call 479-738-6929 and confirm the total amount required.
2. Ask whether the account includes a late penalty, delinquency charge or returned-payment fee.
3. Pay using a method accepted for reconnection. The utility specifies cash or credit/debit card for delinquent reconnection balances.
4. Confirm when the payment has been received and restoration can be scheduled.
5. Arrange for safe access to the meter if requested.

Never attempt to reconnect a locked meter yourself. In addition to equipment damage and safety risks, the utility publishes an additional $100 fee for unauthorized reconnection.

Need More Time to Pay? Request a Billing Extension

Huntsville Water Utilities provides an extension request process for customers who cannot pay by the required deadline. Extensions are not automatic and must be approved.

How to Request a Payment Extension

1. Open the official Extension Request Form.
2. Make sure you are the account holder because requests must be submitted by the responsible customer.
3. Complete the required account and contact information.
4. Submit the request before the applicable deadline.
5. Wait for confirmation by telephone or email before assuming the extension is approved.
6. Pay the agreed amount by 3 PM on the approved extension date.

The utility allows a maximum of two payment extensions per calendar year, provided previous extension terms were honored.

Weekend and after-hours requests are processed on the next business day. Approval is not guaranteed, so request assistance as early as possible.

Start New Water Service in Huntsville, Arkansas

Huntsville Water Utilities provides an online application for residential customers within the Huntsville city limits. New customers must provide identification and pay the applicable deposit before service can be activated.

New Residential Service Charges

Card-processing fees may apply if a deposit is paid by credit or debit card.

How to Apply for New Water Service

1. Verify your address. Confirm that the property is within Huntsville Water Utilities’ service area.
2. Open the application. Visit the official New Service Application page.
3. Prepare identification. The primary account holder must be at least 18 years old and provide a government-issued photo ID.
4. Provide rental documents if applicable. Renters need a lease showing the starting date and property owner’s contact details. If a lease is unavailable, the owner must contact the utility to authorize service.
5. Complete the application. Enter the requested information and submit it online.
6. Pay the deposit. After applying, call or visit the water office to arrange the deposit and $5 application charge.
7. Confirm activation. Ask when service will begin and whether additional requirements apply to your property.

Moving Into a Rental Home?

Ask your landlord whether the home already has an active water meter and whether utility service must be transferred into your name. Provide the lease start date and owner’s contact information when applying.

For a house outside Huntsville city limits, verify the actual water supplier before submitting an application. A Huntsville mailing address does not automatically establish eligibility for city water service.

Huntsville Water Rates and Card Processing Fees

The utility’s published billing policy lists the following processing charges for card payments:

Examples: A $100 card payment would carry the published $2 fee, making the total $102. A $250 card payment would carry an approximately $8.23 processing fee, making the total about $258.23. Confirm the exact amount at checkout.

Where to Find the Current Water and Sewer Rates

Huntsville Water Utilities is transitioning portions of its information to the City of Huntsville website. Its official Rates & Policies page currently advises customers to request the complete rate schedule by telephone or email.

For the applicable residential or commercial tariff, contact:

• Phone: 479-738-6929
• Email: info@huntsville-water.com

Ask for the current water and wastewater rate schedule, including base charges, usage tiers, taxes and any outside-city-limit classification applicable to your account.

In its October 2023 notice, the utility discussed planned water and wastewater rate increases through 2026 due to higher purchased-water costs and wastewater infrastructure improvements. That historical announcement should not be used as a substitute for the current adopted tariff.

Why Is My Huntsville Water Bill Higher Than Usual?

A higher statement can result from increased water use, a longer billing period, a plumbing leak, a meter-reading issue or changes in water and sewer rates.

Check These Six Things Before Disputing Your Bill

1. Compare water consumption. Look at usage on the current and previous bills instead of comparing only the total amount due.
2. Check the billing period. Confirm how many days are included on the statement.
3. Inspect toilets and faucets. A running toilet may waste water without creating a visible puddle.
4. Check exterior plumbing. Look for leaking outdoor faucets, wet ground or signs of an underground service-line leak.
5. Review the meter information. An incorrect or difficult-to-read meter reading may require investigation by the utility.
6. Contact the office. Call 479-738-6929 and request assistance reviewing consumption and charges.

Huntsville Water Utilities acknowledges that high consumption may be caused by a transposed meter reading or a hidden leak. Its customer FAQ recommends calling the office so staff can help investigate.

No Water, Low Pressure or Water Quality Concerns

If water pressure suddenly drops or your property loses service, check whether the issue is isolated to your building or affects nearby customers.

Report Low Water Pressure

1. Check whether both hot and cold faucets have reduced pressure.
2. Look around the meter area for visible leaks or unusually wet ground.
3. Ask nearby residents whether they are experiencing a similar problem.
4. Call 479-738-6929 and report the service address and when the issue began.
5. Follow any official instructions if water-main repairs or a boil-water notice affect your neighborhood.

Water Looks Cloudy or Milky

The utility explains that repairs can introduce air into water lines, which may temporarily create a milky appearance. If water remains discolored, has an unusual odor or appears contaminated, contact Huntsville Water Utilities before assuming it is safe.

After-Hours Water Emergencies

Call 479-738-6929 and select Option 2 to reach the utility’s on-call staff for water emergencies.

For a water-main break, report the location, approximate time the problem began and whether water is escaping into the roadway or onto nearby property.

Do not operate the utility meter or reconnect disconnected service yourself. Leave utility-controlled equipment to authorized personnel.

Huntsville Drinking Water Source and Local Water Quality

Huntsville Water Utilities purchases treated surface water from Madison County Regional Water District. The source is Beaver Lake, a major water supply for communities in Northwest Arkansas.

The utility publishes annual drinking-water quality reports that include testing information, contaminants measured and public water system information.

The Arkansas Department of Health maintains public water system records. For Huntsville Water Utilities, the system identification is AR0000348.

How to Check the Water Quality Report

1. Open the official Huntsville Water Utilities website.
2. Look under Reports or the drinking-water quality information available on the website.
3. Read the report for the applicable calendar year.
4. Check the detected values, regulatory limits and any notices or explanations included with the report.
5. Contact the water office if you have a specific concern about drinking water at your property.

The Arkansas Department of Health also maintains Huntsville Water Utilities public drinking-water information.

If you receive a boil-water advisory, follow the current official instructions for your service area. Historical boil notices should not be interpreted as active warnings.
