    Hi Tasfasdt,

    Thank you for your message.

    If the property needs to be reconnected to the public water mains, then a new connection will need to be submitted. From the 1st of April, standard cost for the water connection is 2,272euro for a single domestic dwelling that is less then 10m away from the mains connection. For more pricing options, please click here.

    If the property was unoccupied for some time, then the Outside Stop Valve could have been turned off. We recommend that you check this first. The outside stop valve is located within the boundary box, along with the Irish Water meter at the front of the property (on the footpath usually). When accessing your water meter please be aware of your surroundings, your personal safety and the safety of others. The water meter boxes are normally located out of the way of traffic, however, please remain aware of cyclists, pedestrians and other road users.

    The meter box can be opened by slowly and carefully prising off the meter lid. You will see small slots located around the edge of the meter lid into which you can insert a safe implement, such as the flat handle of a spoon, to carefully prise off the plastic water meter lid. For further safety information, please click here.

    To turn on the water, apply light pressure to the outside stop valve until it clicks turn the valve one quarter of a rotation anti-clockwise. To turn the water back off, turn it one quarter of a rotation clockwise.

    We hope this information helps and please let us know if you require further details.

    Kind regards,
    Louise
