We don't run a sprinkler in the summer. We barely water our plants at all, heh. The extent of the excess water used this summer was filling the tiny kiddie pool once or twice. So probably the same amount you'd use filling the tub once for a bath.

The toilet did run for (I don't remember how long) until September - but even then, at the end we were shutting the toilet off until we could get it fixed.

Is the water meter inside the house? If it's at the street or something it could be a leak between there and the house... -- nm - Ender Nov 21, 19:39 5
- I...have no idea where it is, actually. -- nm - elf kelly Nov 21, 19:40 4
  - Figuring that out is step one. If they're not just misreading the meter you know whatever's happening is on the house side of the meter. -- nm - Ender Nov 21, 20:06 3
    - Would we be on the hook for that? -- nm - elf kelly Nov 21, 20:07 2
      - My gut says "probably", but you'd want to run that by the water supplier if that turns out to be the issue. - Ender Nov 21, 20:13 1
        
        So, if there was a leak somewhere between the house and the meter? Ugh. -- nm - elf kelly Nov 21, 20:23
the toilet running is a huge drain, we had that problem -- nm - groiny Nov 21, 19:38 3
- But that would explain Jun-Aug. That shouldn't have mattered much this last quarter. - elf kelly Nov 21, 19:39 2
  - no dripping faucets? -- nm - groiny Nov 21, 19:41 1
    - no. -- nm - elf kelly Nov 21, 19:41
