The service address you provide must be in the same rate center as the Household (primary) number you have selected. Failure to provide the correct and proper Service Address may result in misdirecting 911 calls to the incorrect PSAP or emergency operator and/or the failure to reach the correct location and render emergency service when requested. You acknowledge that 911 dialing will not function properly if you move your Equipment to another Service Address, either temporarily or permanently, unless the new Service Address has been properly recorded and is in an area for which Napa internet services provides 911 Emergency Dialing. You may change your Service Address by following the procedures specified on the Napa internet services website. Change of Service Address will take a minimum of ten business days to properly update the 911 emergency databases.

911 Service Limitations. The following additional limitations apply to 911 Emergency Dialing when it is provided by Napa internet services:

  • Napa internet services service is only available in areas where 911 service can be provided to new customers.
  • Napa internet services 911 service will not function if the Equipment is not configured properly or if your Napa internet services Service is not functioning for any reason. This includes a broadband or electrical power outage or if your broadband, ISP, or Napa internet services Service is suspended or terminated. In addition, in the event of a local disaster, there is a greater possibility that a Napa internet services 911 call will produce a busy signal, fail to be completed, or experience long connection times due to network congestion.
  • Napa internet services 911 Service will not function properly for several days after you are able to make outbound calls with your Service. Because of the time it takes to properly update the 911 emergency databases, your 911 service will not be available immediately.

Enhanced 911 ("E911"). In certain areas in which Napa internet services provides 911 Emergency Dialing, Napa internet services provides E911 capabilities, if you have activated and properly configured 911 Emergency Dialing. When the caller dials 911 on a Napa internet services-enabled phone with E911 service, Napa internet services will automatically deliver the location information you provided at the time of activation, or as subsequently and properly updated, validated, and acknowledged by Napa internet services, to the PSAP with the 911 call. If the location information you provided is incorrect, the emergency call may be misdirected to a PSAP that does not serve your location, which as a result may be unable to render sufficient emergency service. You acknowledge that you are solely responsible for maintaining accurate physical location information on your Napa internet services account. If you move your Napa internet services equipment to another location, you must update your Service Address in accordance with the instructions on the Napa internet services website.

Basic 911. In some areas in which Napa internet services provides 911 Emergency Dialing, Napa internet services may not support E911, and your physical location information may not be automatically delivered to the PSAP with the 911 call. The PSAP or local emergency dispatcher receiving a non-E911 emergency call may not be able to capture and/or retain automatic number or location information. This means that the dispatcher may not know the phone number or physical location of the person who is making the 911 call. Therefore, a caller dialing 911 using Napa internet services may need to immediately tell the dispatcher the location of the emergency, and the caller must not prematurely disconnect the line, since the dispatcher may not have the phone number to call back the caller. If the caller is unable to speak or sufficiently describe the location, the emergency dispatcher may not be able to render emergency service to the appropriate location.
