dude, you need to look at the volume versus the rate. . If you are just comparing total dollars, you are just blaming someone else if the volume is huge due to a broken sprinkler head or a leak.

We had a huge water bill, until we tested the sprinkler heads, which are set for 2-4 AM, and we never see them actually operate. One next to the street was broken off and was just watering the road at 100% of the flow. . . once fixed, our bill dropped back to normal.. . .

do tell us about your volume stats. . .
