Service Connection Information – Pineview Water Systems

Connections:

For information on connection permits and related fees for the secondary water system please contact our Connections and Assessment Clerk at 801-622-4342.

Before any connection is made for the use of district water or to any district line, it is necessary that a connection permit be obtained from the district office.
Connections to district lines will be made by district personnel only.
The district will allow one connection per lot. The size of the valve will be determined by the district according to lot size and pressure available.
Any unauthorized connection will be disconnected until the connection fee, impact fee and/or other fees have been paid. In addition, the district will also charge a re-connection fee of $500.
No cross connections will be allowed between district and other water lines.
It is illegal to extend secondary water lines into any buildings or lay them in the same trench as culinary water lines.

Secondary Water:

Secondary water is for use on landscaping only.
Secondary water should NEVER be consumed.
Secondary water should not be used in evaporative coolers, water features or swimming pools.

Replacing a Master Valve:

The master valve is the property owner’s responsibility to maintain or replace.
Each water user should keep their master valve clearly marked and accessible in case of emergency.
During water season, a water shut off appointment is necessary for making a repair unless property damage is apparent.
When replacing a master valve during water season, have all parts and equipment assembled and ready to make the repair as soon as district personnel have turned off the water to your area.
We require a good, quality brass valve. No plastic valves please.
The line must be disassembled or cut on property owner’s side of valve. The service line should not be disturbed, as this belongs to the water district.

When making a repair during water season, call the office at 801-621-6555 when the repair is complete to have the repair inspected and have water turned back on in your area.
Master valves should be left open during the winter months and closed prior to the start of the water season each spring (approximately April 1).
If district personnel are required to turn off a master valve to prevent damage or the wasting of water, a service charge of $50 will be charged to the property owner.

Pumps

Any user who has a booster pump should install a low water cut off switch in case water is not in the system for any reason to avoid damage to the pump.
