I have neighbors who try to save money by attaching sprinklers to their outside hose bibs because it looks like the water per gallon is cheaper than reclaimed. They forget that they must pay a sewage fee.....I admit I have not done the math to see if they are right....
Actually, it still comes out cheaper on regular usage!! (This is according to my neighbor) The more usage by sprinkler system, the higher the cost factor
