<prompt> Human: Purchased a newto me home, this is my second water bill. The first one was partial month, not too crazy an amount so didnt notice. But now that I look at it, it is billed for 35000 gallons.Were two adults, in a 2400sqft house. We have 3 showers, but we only use 1 daily, and probably 2 toilets. 1 dishwasher and 1 washer - used less than once a week.The quantity of 67000 gallons seems crazy stupidly high to me. What is the normal water usage of a regular household. Can I get my meter checked? Should I dispute the bill? What is the best course of action?Thanks PF.EDIT: Thank for all the pointers folks, looks like I will have to closely monitor my water meter to find the culprit. As per all the comments I will look at, in this order: External leaks, leaks around flush tanks etc, sprinkler usage and monitoring usage per shower etc. I dont think I have any low flow outlets at all, could be all just adding up.I will call the utility company as well to see if they will calibrate the meter, just in case. I will likely turn one of my security cameras to the meter for the next few weeks!Assistant: Did you take a meter reading when you moved in? Does the current reading match what you were billed for? They may be estimating based on a previous owners usage.Human: Didnt take a reading when I first moved in, first time owner and everything I know better now..Thing is my meter has 6 digits and a painted on 0 on it Trying to figure out how to read it. When the 6 rolls over, have I used 1 gallon or 10? My water company reports 3 digits, probably the higher 3 digits.  <response>: The small triangle to the left of your needle on the meter will spin if you have a leak. Turn off everything in the house and see if it is still spinning. This should let you know if it is a problem on your end.
