🕵️♂️ Mystery Solved: The Case of the Crazy High Water Bill! 💧💸
Got a massive water bill but no visible leaks in the house? That’s exactly what happened on our latest callout!
After running a tracer gas leak detection test and auditing the main water meter, we confirmed the house itself was 100% leak-free. So, where were tens of thousands of liters of water disappearing to? 🔍
The Hidden Culprit: The swimming pool water storage tanks! 🏊♂️
❌ An old, worn-out auto-fill valve was sticking open, continuously pumping municipal water into the tanks.
❌ An open 15mm drain outlet on the side was dumping that fresh water straight into the ground underground!
📉 The Result: An invisible, non-stop loop of water filling and draining—wasting over 50,000 liters a month!
📍 Takeaway: Not all leaks show up as wet spots on your walls or ceilings. Outdated valves and hidden storage tank drains can drain your wallet fast.
