Monitor helps pay for itself. No this is not a difference in billing cycles. No the monitor is not malfuctioning. The system is off and there are no leaks as the monitor reads the water meter for activity.
Available on Amazon for 249.00. It also sends alerts when there are leaks.

My experience with the District regarding an unusually high meter reading is different. One month, our bill was nearly three times the usual amount. I pulled the cover on the meter in the front yard and found that the numbers on the meter were much lower than the numbers on the bill. I called the District to complain and was told that their computer had already "flagged" my account to determine why there was such a difference in the water usage from month to month. I don't see that there is anything wrong with having a Flume, but it seems to me to be an unnecessary expense that can be avoided by reading your monthly bill to see if there is an unusual difference in usage from previous months.
