By checking this box and submitting this form, I agree that I am responsible for the water utility bill from the date service is requested and that I understand that a security deposit will be applied on my first bill (see fees below). When an account
with a deposit has
maintained an excellent credit rating (no late notices or fees) for one year, the deposit plus interest will be credited to the account at that time; or upon final termination of the account with Aquarion.
Security Deposit Fees
Residential Single-Family Tenant Deposits - Residential single-family tenants must provide a security deposit of $100. The Company will not refuse to provide utility service to a residential customer who lacks the financial ability to pay a security deposit as
defined under Sec. 16-11-68 Customer Deposits of the Connecticut Agency Regulations of the PURA.
Commercial Tenant Deposits - Commercial tenants must pay a deposit that is equal to one and one half (1.5) months’ usage.
An initial deposit of $100 will be required, which is reviewed for adequacy after the first bill. If usage is less than $100 for one and one-half (1.5) months, the deposit will be adjusted and the account will be credited. However, if usage is higher,
the tenant may receive a request for an additional deposit up to $300. If a customer has an excellent credit rating with Aquarion, the security deposit for a new location may be waived. Deposits are subject to simple interest at the legal rates as
subscribed under the General Statutes.
