Application for Water Supply
Water meters cover a wide range of categories, including industrial buildings, commercial buildings, shops, and restaurants. When applying for a commercial water meter, customers must declare the purpose of water usage and the specific category. Relevant categories and codes are listed in the “Water Meter User Classification”.
Minimum Water Meter Size: 50mm
- SIC 641100 – Restaurants (Chinese Cuisine) – Commercial user category code
Minimum Water Meter Size: 25mm
- SIC 641998 – Restaurants (Other Dining Establishments)
- SIC 641200 – Restaurants (Non-Chinese Cuisine)
- SIC 641300 – Restaurants (Fast Food)
- SIC 311100 – Slaughtering, Meat Preparation, and Curing
- SIC 952000 – Laundry Services
If a customer’s business category changes, the relevant department should be notified as soon as possible to ensure accurate calculation of sewage service charges. Any person occupying or managing a property must apply to become the registered user of the water supply. Applications can be made under an individual or company name with the necessary supporting documents.
For premises with an existing water supply, applicants can use online services to apply for account transfer. If no water supply is available or the supply has been disconnected, Form WWO 542 must be completed to apply for water supply.
To avoid disputes over meter readings, new occupants are advised to record the water meter reading on the date of account transfer, if possible, and provide this information to the Water Supplies Department for reference.
