The Torrington Water Company operates as a regulated public water utility that delivers high-quality potable water to approximately 10,100 residential, commercial, and industrial customers, serving about 37,000 people across the city of Torrington and portions of Burlington, Harwinton, Litchfield, and New Hartford in northwestern Connecticut; it sources water primarily from surface supplies including reservoirs and maintains extensive treatment, distribution, and monitoring systems to ensure compliance with state and federal quality standards. Founded in 1873 as the Wolcottville Water Company and renamed in 1882, the company is headquartered at 277 Norfolk Road in Torrington, Connecticut, and focuses on reliable service delivery, annual water quality reporting, customer billing options such as e-billing and online payments, and financial assistance programs including vouchers for eligible low-income households. In October 2022, Aquarion Water Company, Inc., a subsidiary of Eversource Energy, completed the acquisition of The Torrington Water Company in a stock-for-stock transaction valued at approximately $86.4 million, integrating its operations and retaining all employees while complementing Aquarion's regional footprint; as of January 2025, Eversource announced the pending $2.4 billion sale of Aquarion Water Company—including Torrington as a wholly-owned subsidiary—to Aquarion Water Authority, subject to regulatory approvals and expected to close in late 2025.
