How to reduce water bills
There is a variety of ways to control the variable portion of your utility bill and conserve water.
- Only wash with a full load.
- Monitor your water meter and check taps and toilets for leaks.
- Invest in low-flow faucets, shower heads and toilets.
- Time your water use: short showers make a big difference.
- Use a rain barrel to collect water for your garden.
- Fill the sink to do dishes instead of letting water run.
- Know where your water's main shut-off valve is in case of a burst pipe to minimize damage.
When in doubt, call your water provider for advice.
Reasons for unusually high water bills
If your water bill is suddenly higher than it used to be, you need to find the source of the problem. There could be various reasons including increased water consumption, leaking pipes or appliances, or a billing adjustment by your water service provider. Please call your company for more information.
