If you are a current resident moving within Fairview and need to move your town utilities, the process is the same as cancelling your current service. You will then need to complete a new account application.

If you are moving out of Fairview and need to cancel your utilities, fill out the Utility Account Cancellation form. We will process your request and ensure that your services are discontinued from the specified date. We recommend filling out the form at least five days before your move-out date.

In Fairview, the average household uses about 13 cubic metres (m3) or 13,000 litres of water per month. This includes water used outdoors for irrigation.
A home's indoor water consumption will usually remain about the same throughout the year unless you have house guests or you go on vacation.
The chart below shows typical water use for common household fixtures and appliances. Actual water use can vary based on your water-use habits and the efficiency of your fixtures.
On a daily basis, the average residential home fixtures use the following volumes of water:
Conserving water in your home is a crucial step towards a sustainable lifestyle. By making little changes in your daily habits, you can save money, reduce your carbon footprint, and preserve natural resources. For instance, imagine turning off the faucet when brushing your teeth or shaving. You can save up to 15 liters of water per minute, which translates to a substantial reduction in your monthly water bill. Not to mention, this simple act can reduce your carbon footprint by reducing the energy required to process, transport, and treat water.
Another way to save water is by fixing leaky faucets and pipes. A drop of water per second may seem insignificant, but it can waste up to 12,000 liters of water per year. That's a considerable amount of water and money wasted. By repairing leaks, you can preserve natural resources and save an average of 10% on your water bill and use a broom instead of a hose to clean driveways or sidewalks. These are just a few examples of how you can make a difference by conserving water in your home. So, let's take the necessary steps toward a sustainable future and do our part to protect our planet's most valuable resource- water.
