Finspångs Tekniska supplies clean and safe drinking water to connected properties in Finspång Municipality. Here you can find information about connections, water meters, change of ownership and where to find current prices and technical requirements.

Drinking water is an essential public service that ensures access to clean and safe water for households and businesses. The water is produced, tested and distributed through the municipal water network to connected properties.

In Finspång Municipality, Finspångs Tekniska is responsible for producing and distributing drinking water. The company is the municipal water provider and is responsible for ensuring that the water meets current quality requirements through regular testing and monitoring. Water is supplied up to the property’s connection point.

Connecting to the municipal drinking water network

Within a designated service area, most properties are already connected to the municipal drinking water network, although some properties may not yet be connected. For properties outside a service area, the options for water supply must be assessed based on local conditions.

To connect a property to the municipal water network, the property owner must apply for a connection. The process may vary depending on local conditions, but usually includes:

• an assessment of whether the property can be connected to the existing network
• a connection offer and agreement
• installation of a water meter

The property owner is responsible for providing a suitable location for the water meter, while the meter itself is owned by Finspångs Tekniska.

The division of responsibility between the property owner and the municipal water provider is at the connection point, where the public water pipe connects to the property’s private pipework.

When buying a property

When a property changes ownership, the current and new property owners must complete a change of ownership form together. This ensures that the water service account is registered correctly.

Charges for drinking water are based on the current tariff, which is available on the Finspångs Tekniska website.

Drinking water in apartments

In most apartment buildings, the property owner or landlord is responsible for the water supply.
