When the sprinkler is on, it runs at 4:30 AM - twice a week. There has not been any notice of the sprinkler usage (water) on the street, driveway or sidewalk in 2 1/2 months. Where is the water going? If there is a break in the line, why would it leak if the timer is turned off (original Hunter SRC plus electric controller installed 2005??).
I turned off the flow of water in the sprinkler module yesterday (12/13) until this is sorted out. It should also be noted that the 2 sprinkler guys I called 12/10 are too busy to stop by.

We had the SAME situation. Water was turned off, sprinklers off, out of state. Got same shock as our bill is the same usage every month. Found out on facebook many MORE had same thing. We had house and lawn system checked for leaks, nothing, checked toilets, faucets, everything. Seems very strange now that we've found this is true all over (check out villages groups on FB, you will find the same thing). No one has had a very pleasant interchange when inquiring to the villages water dept. (sad to say).
