In case the service supplying a house or building is found not to be large enough due to additions to the building or an increase in the number of fixtures, the Public Utilities Department will make the larger tap and install the larger service upon the payment of the tapping charge for the size of the new service. No credit will be given for the service already in place that is found to be insufficient in size.
