What is the WaterPro Water Leak Protection Plan℠?

Louisville Water developed the WaterPro Water Leak Protection Plan for residential customers, to provide a convenient and affordable solution to help protect you against unexpected water and wastewater charges from a qualifying leak.

Does my homeowners insurance cover this?

Most basic homeowners insurance policies do not cover excess water and wastewater charges from leaks, leaving you responsible for the high water bill. WaterPro helps fill the gap by providing you peace of mind that when you have a qualifying leak, you won’t have to worry about unexpectedly high water bills.

What charges does WaterPro cover?

With WaterPro, residential customers are covered for up to $3,000 of excess water and wastewater charges from one qualifying leak per 12-month period. Leaks can happen at any time and may remain undetected until you notice it on your water bill. For this reason, WaterPro covers the excess water charges for two consecutive billing cycles for the qualifying leak occurrence. WaterPro does not cover repair expenses.

To qualify for a credit on your water bill with WaterPro, the eligible plumbing leak must generate a minimum additional charge of at least fifty percent (50%) over the average of the past twelve (12) months’ bills, with a minimum overage of forty dollars ($40).

Where does the leak need to originate for WaterPro to cover the cost of the excess water?

WaterPro covers excess water and wastewater from qualifying leak events* such as:

• Burst or Ruptured Pipes
• Dripping/ Leaking Faucets
• Running Toilets
• Water Heaters

• Unattended Homes
• Faulty Customer Plumbing
• Irrigation Systems
• Vandalism

*See Program Guidelines for complete coverage details.
