The Water District shall not be liable for any damages which
may result to consumers' pipes, appliances, etc., from the shutting
off of water mains or service pipes for any purpose whatever, whether
previous notice has been given or not.
In cases where boilers are directly supplied with water, the
owner shall provide a suitable valve or other device to prevent collapse
or explosion in case the water is shut off in the street mains.
No deductions from water bills will be made for periods when
the service is shut off due to accident or repairs.
The Water District shall not be held liable for any damage sustained
by reason of its failure to supply water to any consumer at any time
or for any cause and reserves the right to control the amount of water
supplied in the event that the supply becomes short for any reason.
The Water District does not guarantee service from curb box
to house or through any piping, valves or connections therein. Faulty
service or inadequate supply is frequently due to corroding or stopping
of pipes and fixtures. Any necessary changes in piping, valves or
connections to increase the water supply or its efficiency must be
made by the owner at his own expense.
The Town Board reserves to itself the control of all taps, mains,
curb cocks and meters. It also reserves the right, whenever the Board
deems it proper or whenever there is a violation of the rules and
regulations, to take charge of and control the service pipes.
The Water District will not be accountable for any breaks or
obstructions caused by frost or otherwise or from any damage arising
by leakage from service pipes, fixtures or pipes owned by individuals.
The Water District will not thaw out or pay for the thawing out of
frozen service lines.
The Water District will maintain hydrants, valves and connections
to mains but is not responsible for the cutting of grass, weeds or
brush in their vicinity and is not responsible for the removal of
snow.
