Wichita, Kansas Water Department – Pay Bill, Contact & Services Guide

Choose the Wichita Water Task You Need

Wichita’s water pages are split across payment, Customer Care, rates, leak reporting and conservation sections. Use the route below so you do not waste time on the wrong page.

How to Pay a Wichita Water Utilities Bill Online

The official City payment path starts from the Wichita Make a Payment page. Select Water Utilities Bill to pay online or manage services through the City’s water utility system.

1. Open the official City payment page.
   Start here: City of Wichita Make a Payment.
2. Choose Water Utilities Bill.
   Do not choose court citations, alarm administration or unrelated payment categories.
3. Use Customer Care if you need account management.
   Wichita’s Customer Care portal is used for water account questions, payment arrangements and account service options.
4. Check your account before paying.
   Confirm the account number, service address, current balance, due date and payment amount.
5. Save confirmation.
   Keep the receipt, confirmation number or screenshot until the payment appears on your account.

Payment Questions, Arrangements and Customer Care

If your bill is late, you need an arrangement, a payment did not post, or the account balance looks wrong, call Water Customer Care instead of guessing online.

1. Review your latest bill.
   Know the amount due, due date, account number and service address before calling.
2. Call before the issue becomes urgent.
   Ask what options are available and what must be paid immediately.
3. Ask about payment posting.
   If you already paid, have your confirmation number, payment date and payment method ready.
4. Write down the plan.
   Record the amount, date, staff guidance and what happens if a payment is missed.
5. Keep paying new bills if required.
   Ask whether future bills must be paid separately while catching up on a past-due balance.

Report Wichita Water Leaks, Sewer Leaks and Septic System Issues

Water leaks and sewer problems should not wait for billing customer service. Wichita’s reporting page gives separate numbers for public water/sewer leaks and private septic system leaks.

High Wichita Water Bill Checklist Before You Call

Wichita’s high-bill guidance says high water bills are caused by high usage. Warm-weather yard or garden watering, leaking toilets and leaking faucets are common causes. Use this checklist before assuming the bill is wrong.

Quick toilet dye test

1. Open the toilet tank.
   Remove the lid from the back of the toilet.
2. Add dark food coloring to the tank.
   Put the color in the tank, not the bowl.
3. Wait about 15 minutes.
   Do not flush during the test.
4. Check the bowl.
   If color appears in the bowl, the toilet is leaking and may be raising your bill.

Have this ready before contacting Customer Care

• Account number and service address.
• Current bill and previous bill.
• Payment confirmation if you recently paid.
• Dates when usage increased.
• Leak repair receipt, plumber invoice or photos if you fixed a leak.
• Notes about irrigation, yard watering, guests, new tenants or appliance changes.
