High water bill. Meter not spinning
I'm baffled by how a property's water bill is so high despite there appearing to be no leak. Multiple plumbers said they don't see, hear, or smell a leak. Meter isn't spinning like it when I got the water main replaced. No silent toilet leak after doing a food dye test. City said the meter isn't broken.
Can it really be the tenants? All signs point to a tenant consumption issue, not a leak.
- Avg. bill before May: $120
- May: $480 (water main replaced due to leak)
- June: $303 (lowered but still high due to timing of replacement and billing cycle)
- July: $413
- August: $479
- September: $282
