About $98.00 per month. Does that seem high, normal, low? I was career Army so never really thought about those things as I never really lived at home and then my homes were minimalistic as are most military nomads. I don't know how much of that is from making RO water but it's certainly significant.

Something to consider is most water utilities will cost more if you also have sewage and not septic. I think when we moved and went from city water/septic to city water/sewage it more than doubled.

Ours is about $130/month with five people. And the sewage thing is real...we pay more for that than the actual water.

Where I am in Canada they don't meter yet, and we rent so water is included, the owner pays a flat annual fee for utilities, I could leave the water running 24/7 if I wished to but I don't as I don't like wasting water. I feel bad enough with the RO waste water going down the drain.

Mine is around $100 in winter and around $200 in summer here in Nashville,tn. The sewer portion is $36 last month on a $94 bill. That’s 5 people in a house. I do weekly water changes and fresh ro water for top off on a 160gal.

Mine in new Jersey, is about 170 a quarter. For 3 of us and the tank lol. 2/3 is sewage and delivery fee. (Yes delivery lol, I guess that's the fee for the pipes in the street.) I'm my last house, still in jersey but water war run by a private company I paid 120 a MONTH for the same usage.

$25 a month with a water association and septic. I believe the price is prorated at 25000 gallons a month, anything over adds to the cost. I think I only went over when we seeded the lawn and we have several acres, so it was a lot of water. 3 person household, with a 300 gallon freshwater tank that I do about a 200 gallon water change weekly, and a 25 gallon water change biweekly on my reef.

Yours is in line with my water here in Beaverton, Or. At least with mine, the water part of the bill is not much, there is a lot of flat fees so using no water I would still pay about $120 or so every two months.

I get 1000 gallons for $23.50. $5 for every 1000 gallons after that. I’m on septic so no sewer. I don’t make much RO water, only for top offs. I don’t do many water changes.

Crap - I got to stop watering my lawn. ~ $225 every month in San Antonio, includes sewer. Two teenage daughters, wife, keeping a pool filled, the aforementioned lawn, and only about 50 gallons a month in RODI. Oh, and I make ice cubes for my Bourbon. ;)
