The water bills seemed high for abou 11 months so I finally shut off the water in the house and went to the curb where the meter is. It was turning and it's looking like I'm losing about 250 gallons a day. It's real sandy soil so I guess it is just going into the ground. ..
Anyway the plumber is comming to look and bid tomorrow so i would like to sound/appear intelligent. I'm assuming I want 3/4 soft copper?? It'l be about a 50ft straight shot across the lawn, 5 ft for frost, and I'll probably have to replace a chunk of sidewalk. I'm thinking since it is only 50 ft I might have him run a second pipe for future use just because the ditch is open and it would be easy enough to put 2 pipes in.
Do I about have it right?? Anything else I should be concerned with??
Thanks for all the help on this forum.
