Residential Rates and Blocks

The new rates system for California American Water features five pricing tiers. The amount of water allowed at each tier is standardized for single family and multi-family residential customers.

During each billing period, your household water use starts in the first tier, where the price per 100 gallons is the lowest. Each tier has a certain amount of water allocated to it – if you use more water than is allocated to a particular tier, you move to the next higher-priced tier.
