Plumbing emergency Edmonton: safety first

Smell gas, or is a carbon monoxide (CO) alarm going off? Get everyone out of the building now. Don't stop to open windows, look for the leak or grab things. Leave lights and appliances alone on the way out. Once you're outside, call 911. For a gas smell, also call ATCO's gas emergency line: 1-800-511-3447.

Water near outlets, cords, the electrical panel, the furnace or the water heater? Stay out of the water. Don't touch anything electrical. Don't go into a flooded basement to reach a valve or the panel. If water may be touching anything electrical, call 911 from somewhere dry, or EPCOR at 780-412-4500.

This website is not an emergency service. If anyone is hurt or in danger, call 911.

Basement flooding, Edmonton: who owns which pipe

EPCOR runs Edmonton's water and drainage. Its 24-hour emergency line, 780-412-4500, covers sewer backups, frozen water service lines and water main breaks.

EPCOR owns the pipes from the main to your property line, the curb stop valve and the water meter. The homeowner owns the rest: the water line from the property line in, the main shut-off, the sewer line, any backwater valve and the hot water tank. That split decides whether your first call is EPCOR or a plumber.
