With the recent COVID-19 outbreak, Nuvera would like to assure you that our priorities remain keeping our services fully operational, as well as taking precautions and following CDC recommendations to protect the well-being of our employees and customers. Please note the following information regarding Nuvera’s adjusted operating procedures relating to this pandemic.
Office Closures
Nuvera offices are closed to walk-in customers, but our call center is open and associates are available by phone at 844.354.4111 or online chat at www.nuvera.net. 24/7 emergency support is also available at this same number.
Network Upgrades and Monitoring
During this unprecedented time, Nuvera has been experiencing record Internet usage across all our communities. In some areas up to an 80-100 percent increase within a very small window of time. Our top priority is to keep our customers connected with no disruptions in service. We will continue to monitor and strengthen our network to sufficiently handle the increased capacity.
Remote Installations
New service requests are still being accepted but will be done through remote installation. In extreme instances, exceptions may be considered.
