We understand that more water is used in the hot months for gardening, landscaping, kiddy pools, and squirt gun fights. Much of this water is returned to the ground instead of the sewer system so a discount is applied to your bill. Pro-tip: Check your dates and plan accordingly to make the most of this benefit; maybe hold off watering the lawn until you know it won't break the bank.
