Sign Up for the District’s Alert System

The District has implemented an email and text alert system for the residents of Northwest Harris County Municipal Utility District No. 6. This system is designed to keep you informed of issues related to the District in a quick and timely manner. You may receive messages in either email or text alert format, or both, related to the water service in the District, drainage and sewer related topics, and other news that is relevant to the District.

The email alerts that you may receive will contain the majority of the relevant information and may occasionally direct you back to the District’s website for more details.

Text message notifications will contain a short amount of information with a link back to the District’s website where the remainder of the information can be viewed.

These notifications are a great way to stay up to date on news and issues within the District and we highly encourage you to sign up and share this information with your neighbors.

Don’t Flush the “Flushables!”

Dear NWHCMUD 6 –

Please do not flush moist/wet wipes and feminine hygiene products down your toilet.

After these items are flushed, they cause problems at various points on their way to the sewer processing plant by clogging lift pumps and can also trigger costly sewer backups.

In addition to affecting the District’s main sewer system, disposing of cooking grease in the kitchen drain causes eventual build-up or blockage within the homeowner’s sewer system.

We thank everyone for their cooperation.

Freezing Weather Tips

  • Locate and insulate pipes most susceptible to freezing — typically those near outer walls, in crawl spaces, or in the attic.
  • Winterize your house lines and irrigation system. Open your cabinet doors under your sinks to provide warm air circulation.
  • Disconnect garden hoses and shut off and insulate outside pipes and faucets.
  • Make sure you and your family know how to shut off the water in case pipes burst.
