Water Bill High? Check for Water Leak

If your water bill is unusually high, without a known cause, you probably have a leak. Leaks are not always obvious.  If you have a leak, the sooner you find it the better. Here is how you can check for a leak.


TO CHECK THE TOILETS USE THE DYE TEST: 
95% of water leaks are due to leaky toilets.  Toilets can leak in six different ways; some cannot be seen or heard. DYE TEST every toilet when checking for leaks: 

  • First, take the lid off the tank, the tank water is your next flush water. (The tank water should stay securely in the tank until the toilet is flushed.)
  • Add several drops of food coloring to the tank water until it is a strong color.
  • DO NOT FLUSH FOR ONE (1) HOUR.
  • Put the lid back on the tank and flip the seat up so you can see the water in the toilet bowl.   (If the coloring is already in the toilet bowl you have a bad leak, turn off that toilet until you can fix it).
  • Continue to monitor the bowl several times during the hour. If the colored tank water makes its way to the bowl, you have a leak.
  • If, after one hour, the color remains in the tank and the water in the bowl is clear, the toilet is not leaking.
  • Repeat this test on all toilets in your home.
  • If you find a toilet leak, replace the parts in the tank and run the “DYE TEST” one more time to be sure everything is installed securely.


​​​TO CHECK THE METER TO DETERMINE THE SIZE OF THE LEAK, USE THE 4-HOUR TEST:


  • Find your water meter; it should be the only meter inside your home.  It will be on the lowest level of your home on the wall that faces the street, many times in the right-hand or left-hand corner.  The “4-HOUR TEST” will show whether or not you have a leak and the size of the leak.
  • You will be taking two (2) readings from the water meter, one at the beginning of the four (4 ) hour period and one at least four (4) hours later.  Each time you take a reading you should write down what time it is.
  • A good time to run this test is when everyone is going to be out of the house (or asleep) for at least four
  • (4) hours and when you believe no water should be going through the meter.
  • Write down the first reading from the water meter.  Write d own every digit and the time.   Use no water after this reading.
  • When you return home (or wake-up), go straight to your meter and read it again. Write down the time and the second reading.
  • If the reading is the same as the first reading then you are not experiencing a leak.  If the reading is not the same, then you have a leak.  Subtract the first reading from the second reading to see how much water went through your meter during the test time.​
