High Water Bill, Leak Check, Toilet Test and Sewer Credit

Shut off faucets and make sure dishwasher and washing machine are not running.

2. Wake/read meter

Locate the meter near the street. If digital, shine a light to wake the display.

3. Isolate leak

Use the main valve and individual fixture valves to decide whether leak is underground or inside.

4. Document repair

Keep repair bill, receipts, pool contract or statement before requesting sewer credit.

Leak clue
City guidance / practical check
What to do next
Meter changes while all water is off

Loss is most likely between meter and main valve, such as underground pipe.
Call plumber/utility as appropriate and document location.
Meter stops after main valve is off
Turn main valve back on, then isolate toilets/sinks one at a time.
Check fixture valves and repeat meter test.
Possible toilet leak
Put toilet tablet or colored liquid in tank, wait 15-30 minutes or longer, then check bowl.
If bowl changes color, flapper may not seal properly.
Need toilet test tablets
City says toilet test tablets are available free of charge at City Hall.
Ask Utility Customer Service for tablets when visiting.
