Aurora Water Rates Rising — Colorado Drought Straining Reservoir Supply
Aurora Water is implementing commercial rate increases driven by Colorado's ongoing drought conditions. Aurora's complex water portfolio — spanning multiple river systems and reservoir storage — is under stress, requiring infrastructure investment and conservation programs that are funded through commercial rate increases. Smart Valve™ cuts your bill 15%–35% annually, guaranteed.
The Aurora Water Situation
Aurora's Multi-Source Water Portfolio Is Under Drought Stress — Commercial Rates Rising to Compensate
Aurora Water manages one of Colorado's most complex water portfolios, drawing from multiple river systems and reservoir storage to serve the state's third-largest city. Colorado's drought conditions are reducing water availability across all these sources simultaneously, requiring expensive drought resilience investments that are funded through commercial rate increases.
Commercial properties in Aurora face the same water system challenges as properties across the country: pressure fluctuations that cause meters to over-record consumption, water hammer from surge conditions, and leaks accelerated by supply pressure above the 65 PSI design limit of most fixtures. The Smart Valve™ has been installed in commercial properties throughout Aurora — hotels, apartment complexes, car washes, hospitals, and golf courses — delivering verified water bill reductions averaging 27% annually.

Aurora Water Implementing Commercial Rate Increases in 2025
Aurora Water is raising commercial water rates to fund drought resilience infrastructure and maintain reliable supply from its diverse portfolio of water rights and storage facilities. As Aurora's commercial market continues to grow, infrastructure investment requirements are accelerating.
Colorado Drought: Reservoir Levels and Snowpack Below Average
Aurora's water supply depends on mountain snowpack and reservoir storage across multiple Colorado river systems. Drought conditions have reduced snowpack and reservoir levels below historical averages, stressing Aurora's supply reliability. Conservation mandates are in force for commercial properties.
