You can submit a water tanker service application for residential areas in the Wilayat of Salalah that do not have water networks by visiting the Customer Services offices during working hours from 8:00 am to 2:00 pm.​

The required documents include the building-approved drawing, the title deed (proof of ownership), a building completion certificate from the municipality, and a copy of the ID card.

The subscriber should fill out the subscriber complaint form and submit it to the Water Customer Services Office.

​​The subscriber must first complete the meter test application form and submit it to the Water Customer Services Office. After submitting the application, the customer shall pay RO 10 as meter inspection fees if the meter size ranges from 15 mm (½ inch) to 25 mm (one inch) in diameter and RO 30 Omani for the meter diameter if it is more than one inch.

There are two possible results after the examination:
​- If the meter is working properly, the fee paid cannot be reimbursed;
- If there is a defect in the meter due to a reason not attributable to the subscriber, then the fees paid by the subscriber will be reimbursed.
Wastewater

Treated water is wastewater that has been treated with the latest modern treatment methods to meet drinking water quality standards.​

​​Treated water is used worldwide in many areas, including cooling equipment in industry, construction and contracting, landscaping, and vehicle washing.

Treated water is widely used internationally for the purposes of planting roads and surfaces. This type of water is also so pure that it can be used to irrigate fields and agricultural crops, to clean it, and to boil it completely before consumption.
The demand for treated water is increasing internationally in the field of construction and contracting due to urban expansion, as it can be used in building construction and mixing cement. Despite the quality of treated water, it is not recommended to use it for drinking, bathing, or any other unauthorized use.​

Wastewater in the Raysut treatment plant undergoes several chemical and biological stages to achieve the required purity. Laboratory tests are carried out around the clock to ensure that its quality meets environmental requirements and international standards.

Salalah Sanitary Drainage Services Company (S.A.O.C.) provides the required connections from underground supply wells to consumer buildings in case large quantities of treated water are desired for long periods.

Those requiring smaller quantities of treated water are supplied through recharge points inside the treatment plant and the main pumping station.​​​​
​

Treated water is sold at competitive prices. The price is determined by the quantity and duration of supply.​

Salalah Sanitary Drainage Services Company guarantees the provision of treated water to consumers on a daily basis, except in very exceptional circumstances like natural disasters or during comprehensive treatment plant and networks maintenance. In such cases, it could result in a maximum delay of two days.​​
