About Us

In a world where everything we touch frequently changes, water is our constant.

We’ve never stopped needing it to drink, to cook, to clean, to live. We’ll always need it for sanitation, for fire protection, for watering our lawns and washing our cars.

It’s easy to take water for granted. And because so many do, we don't.

We are experts at delivering high-quality water and wastewater service to our customers. And we are more. We are scientists, environmentalists, innovators, and protectors.

In Washington, we partnered with the City of Seattle to design and build the Tolt Water Treatment Plant, which provides 30 percent of the city’s annual water supply. Employing high-tech filtration methods, the facility is so economical that it has already saved the city and its wholesale water customers an estimated $70 million.

In the communities we serve, we are also residents and employees. We understand how important, how precious, and how critical water is to daily life. It's not always apparent just how far into our daily lives water reaches. We just know that when we need it, we expect it to be there. How it gets there, and more importantly, ensuring that it does get there and that it is of high quality, is what our skilled team cares about most.

We invite you into our site to explore and learn about water, all that we do for our customers and the communities we serve.

We are American Water.
