Help

Things you can do to help

Make sure the plumbing system in your home or business is in good repair and proper working order. Lead pipes and lead solder should not be used. The lead from these can leach into your water. Have all leaks repaired to prevent the wasting of water.  

City code requires that all customers have a check valve on their water service line to prevent the water in your system from running back into the public system. Section 606.1 of the International Plumbing Code requires each dwelling or business to have a customer-owned water isolation valve.  

City Ordinance 16-45 requires that all customers connected to the sanitary sewer system have a backup valve, or backflow preventer, on their sewer lateral to prevent sewage from backing up into their residence in the event of a main line surcharge or blockage. The Water Works & Sewer Board of the City of Gadsden assumes no liability for any damages which may occur due the absence or malfunction of this valve.  

Protect your pipes: Don’t pour Fats, Oils, & Grease, or flush Wipes down the drain; these products can cause clogs, which could lead to environmental impacts and/or property damage.
