WHAT IS AN EMERGENCY?
Gas leaks, odor of gas, damaged lines, carbon monoxide symptoms and water main breaks are all considered emergencies.
If you smell gas, do not attempt to locate the leak. Instead, leave the house or building right away. Do not use any electrical switches, appliances, lights, telephones, or mobile devices, as an electrical charge could create a spark. When you are in a safe place, call M.U.D.'s emergency hotline at 402.554.7777 or 9-1-1.
If someone is showing symptoms of carbon monoxide poisoning, call 9-1-1 immediately. Symptoms are like the flu.
If you have a water-related emergency, call 402.554.7777. Our personnel are ready to assist you 24/7. When in doubt, call us immediately.

Las fugas de gas, el olor a gas, las tuberías de gas dañadas, los síntomas de monóxido de carbono y roturas en las tuberías principales de agua son consideradas emergencias.
Si huele a gas, NO trate de localizar la fuga/escape. Al contrario, abandone la casa o el edificio inmediatamente. No utilice los interruptores eléctricos, electrodomésticos, luces, teléfonos o equipos móviles, ya que una carga eléctrica podría provocar una chispa. Una vez que se encuentre en un lugar seguro, entonces llame a la línea directa de emergencia de M.U.D. al 402.554.7777 o al 9-1-1.
Si alguien tiene síntomas de envenenamiento causados por el monóxido de carbono, llame al 9-1-1 inmediatamente. Los síntomas son como los de la gripe/catarro.

Why do you charge reconnect fees?
Reconnection fees are charged to pay for a portion of the service technician’s time associated with the reconnect and to establish the new account in our system. For current fee information, check the Billing Price book on the Rates & Fees page.
-
May I change the due date on my bill?
No. The due date is determined by when your meter is read and based on a certain number of days from which a bill is generated.
-
Will you take a post-dated check?
No. Post-dated checks are not considered legal tender.
-
What is therm billing?
Therm billing is an equitable method of billing for the natural gas you buy from us, based on the energy content of the gas.
Natural gas expands in volume depending on the elevation of your home or business. Also, our gas comes from different wellfields, therefore energy content can vary.
By recognizing these two variables and converting them to British thermal units (Btus), you pay for the amount of energy used instead of the volume of gas.
-
Do I still receive a bill if my payment is deducted from my checking or savings account?
Yes. You will receive a bill statement approximately 15 days before the payment is withdrawn from your financial institution. This gives you time to contact us if you have a question about the bill.
-
Is a signed application required to begin M.U.D. service?
No. By accepting service from us, you show that you accept and agree to the terms and conditions of our service agreement. This does not change any other agreements you may have with M.U.D.
-
Is a security deposit required to begin M.U.D. service?
If you are a residential customer, a security deposit or a way to waive deposit is required. Ways to waive the deposit include:
- Previous Customer – prior customer with good payment history
- Current customer with good payment history
- Letter of credit reference from another utility, showing the last year’s good payment history
- Co-signer – a personal guarantor – must be a current M.U.D. customer with recent 24 months of excellent payment history
- Homeowner – first-time M.U.D. customer purchasing real estate
- Recurring payments – customer must sign up online for recurring eCheck within 30 days of starting service
If a security deposit is required, arrangements must be made before we can open an account. After 12 consecutive months of timely payments, the residential deposit will be refunded upon request to your account.
A form of security deposit is required for all new commercial accounts. Commercial customers have the option to use a cash deposit as a form of security, an irrevocable letter of credit from a bank, or a surety bond from an insurance company. We will refund the deposit on commercial accounts upon request following three years of timely bill payments.
For more details, please call Customer Service at 402.554.6666 or email us at [email protected].

Why do I get charged something on my bill when I have been gone or not used any gas or water?
