FAQ

The first thing you should do is check your meter reading.  Your meter reading is on your bill card under "present" meter reading.  If the number on the meter is the same or higher than the reading on your bill card, then that's the amount of water that went through your meter.  You could possibly have a leaky toilet or faucet that's difficult to detect, or you may have an underground leak.  Make sure all water is turned off on your property and check to see if the meter is turning.  If you have a "Master Meter" look for the silver star in the center of the meter.  If this is moving, there is water flowing through the meter.  If you have a "Mueller" meter, look for the words "Flow" or "No Flow".  If it says "Flow", then water is flowing through the meter.  If you have any questions, please call the office at 337-598-3439 and we'll work with you to the best of our abilities.
