Water and sewer bills dependent on water supply pipe diameter
I moved into a new house in northern Indiana and a recent water/sewer bill
was over $100 for only two persons living in the house and not using excessive amounts of water. After a check with my neighbors, it appears the city charges WAY more per cubic foot of water if you have a 1-inch diameter supply pipe coming into your house (and is where the city metering device is installed) than if a 5/8-inch diameter pipe is supplying the water. So if two houses both use the same volume of water in a month, if one has a 1-inch supply pipe it is billed almost twice as much as a house with a 5/8-inch supply pipe. Is it just me, or does seem completely ridiculous to be billed so differently for the same volume of water? Bud H |
