Waupun residents and businesses use over 300 million gallons of water each year. Water is vital to our community and we are fortunate in Waupun to have a high-quality water supply. One of our priorities is protecting this natural resource!
There are five deep wells in Waupun reaching down to the St. Peter, Prairie du Chien, Trempealeau, Franconia, Galesville, Eau Claire and Mr. Simon aquifers (in the limestone formation). Water pumped from those depths comes out nice and cold; about 52 degrees year 'round. The water is treated and tested daily to ensure Waupun residents and businesses continue to receive a safe and plentiful water supply.
Meter Reading & Billing
View our Residential, Commercial and Industrial Water Rates
Similar to reading your electric meter, Waupun Utilities collects usage data from your water meter with automatic meter infrastructure (AMI). Our data collection devices read your meter from a distance and store that information in a format that is then downloaded into our billing software to help produce your monthly billing statement.
In some cases or during certain times of year, our data collection devices are not able to communicate with your meter to deliver consumption data. In that event, we provide you with an estimated billing statement, based on your normal usage history for that time of year. Any difference between the amount actually used and the estimated amount billed is corrected automatically when the next regular meter reading is obtained. Ultimately, you pay only for the amount of water actually used.
Water Quality
Waupun Utilities routinely monitors the city’s drinking water according to Federal and State regulations. Our constant goal is to provide you with a safe and dependable supply of drinking water. We want you to understand the efforts we make to continually improve the water treatment process and protect our water resources. We are committed to ensuring the quality of your water.
