Collinwood (water)

Inside City Limits:  Water: $50.00 deposit

Outside City Limits: Water: $75.00 deposit
Water Meter Set Fee: $200.00 

Commercial users will be required to pay a 12 month a average of water usage from a similar business for deposits, if minimal usage then a minimal deposit will be charged.

All deposits are refundable after final utility billing is paid and account is settled.

The Collinwood Water Plant is located approximately one mile behind the Collinwood Schools. The Collinwood Water system receives water from two sources comprised of four springs and one well. The well yields approximately 110 gallons per minute while the springs (located at the water plant) yield, on average, 120 gallons per minute.

The water plant was recently renovated and is of a new design. It is capable of treating 280 gallons per minute or 403,200 gallons per day. The water source is of high quality and requires minimal treatment. We use treatment chemicals such as Liquid Alum, Liquid caustic soda, Liquid Bleach, Liquid Fluoride, and polymer. We, and all public water systems, are required by the State of Tennessee Department of Environment and Conservation to run tests daily. We run tests on chlorine, ph, turbidity, alkalinity, and water hardness along with a multitude of other water quality tests. It is our policy to take and run two bacteriological test per month.

The Collinwood Water System has a distribution system that operates approximately 30 miles of water lines, which are kept and maintained by the Collinwood Utility Department. The distribution system is checked daily for chlorine residual. The State of Tennessee mandates that we must maintain, in our water system, a minimum of 0.2 mg/l of chlorine residual in our water distribution at all times.

The Collinwood Water System incorporates two elevated water storage tanks that hold a total of 300,000 gallons of water. Our water tanks are inspected inside and out every three years, which includes draining and disinfection of the tank interior.

Mr. Kenneth Templeton is the Water Operator for the City of Collinwood and is responsible for our water system. Water System Operators are required to obtain licenses from the State of Tennessee and take yearly continuing education classes to keep the licenses. Mr. Templeton has Water Treatment Grade 3 and Distributions System Grade 1 licenses to operate the Collinwood Water System. He also holds Biological and Natural Systems licenses which would allow him to operate our sewer plant.
