April Conservation Results
April showers never really arrived to bring May flowers. With little precipitation and warm weather, conservation continued to be a challenge. In April 2022, customers used 2% more water than during the same period in 2019. Learn more about the conservation result trends by reading our blog.
There have been several reports of people pretending to be San Jose Water employees calling our customers and asking them to pay their water bill immediately via their bank account. They claim that if you do not pay, your water will be shut off.
This is a SCAM.
If you have concerns about your water account, please reach out to us at customer.service@sjwater.com or (408) 279-7900.
