I would suggest that you view a few of your neighbors water bills by searching their addresses on districtgov.org. Water bills are public information. Also, I would suggest that you check your toilets because they are the most likely cause for leaks in a house. The gasket at the bottom of the canister inside the toilet tank needs to be replaced on a regular basis.
Ok let do the math, you water 20 mins twice week he waters 45 mins twice s week? He uses 8000 gallons of water you use 5000 Gallons one of water? The answer is. ________. Sounds He watering 25 minutes longer and using less water than you’re 20 mins watering?
