There are many potential reasons for this elevated usage; establishing new landscaping, installation of a new irrigation system, a new addition to the family, etc.
One potential cause of the increased use is a leak in your private plumbing. There are many fixtures and appliances in a home, and each one is a potential cause of a significant leak. We would recommend the following course of action to determine if a fixture or appliance leak is the cause of the increased use at your residence:
If the leak indicator is turning: You have determined that there is a leak in your private plumbing. Even a dripping faucet is enough to turn this leak indicator. You may want to call a plumber to identify and repair the problem.
If the leak indicator is not turning: You have determined that there is no leak in your private plumbing and no further action is required.
If your water/sewer bill says "No Usage" even though you have been and are using water, the reader that is connected to your water meter has malfunctioned and needs repair. Call Village Hall at (414) 351-8900 to schedule a repair appointment.
