If you are building on a vacant property or making changes that might impact the current location of your water services, you will need to apply for a new connection or an alteration. Before applying, use the connections map to see what connections may be available at your property.

If you are building a house in a new development, check if your builder has applied for a new water and sewerage connection on your behalf as part of your build contract. If it is not part of your build contract, you will need to apply for a new connection yourself.

If you are moving into an existing property with water and sewerage services, you are already connected to our network and do not need to apply for a connection. Your conveyancer will have advised us of the change of ownership and you can immediately begin using the services. We will commence billing you from the date of purchase of the property.

When sub-dividing an existing property, or for community title divisions, we will automatically assess your land division for new connections after your division has been lodged with Plan SA. Find out more about subdivisions here.

There are costs associated with connecting to our network. The fee for a standard connection is determined by the type and size of the water, sewerage or fire service you request.

A $103.00 lodgement fee is payable on submission of water, recycled water, sewerage and fire service applications. This fee covers the costs associated with assessing your application. This this fee will be deducted from the final construction cost if your project goes ahead.

To understand our connections costs, and any additional fees you may be subject to in your application, please see our fees and charges.

The map is not intended to replace the specialised and professional advice we provide on the completion of an application. Due to this we are unable to indicate detailed asset information such as depth of sewer connections.

More information can be provided on completion of an application.

We currently manage the supply of recycled water to the following four areas:

• Adelaide's parklands
• Bowden
• Adelaide’s southern suburbs: supplied to homes in Seaford Meadows and Seaford Heights
• Mawson Lakes
• Virginia’s market gardeners: the Virginia Pipeline Scheme uses recycled water from the Bolivar Wastewater Treatment Plant to supply growers in the Virginia area north of Adelaide.

Use the Connections Estimator Map to check if a connection might be available in your area, or contact us to confirm if the recycled water is managed by us.
