[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'll assume a garden hose can spit out about 10 gallons per minute. That's 21,600 gallons in 36 hours. Arlington County charges $13.27 per 1000 gallons, so that's $286.63. Test your hose by timing how long it takes to fill a 5 gallon bucket and adjust accordingly. And check your water bill for the rates. And is your yard or neighbor's yard flooded? That's a lot of water.[/quote] This happened to a neighbor once, but it was only about 12 hours and was about $400 extra, also in Arlington. Depends on where you live and how much the volume of water was, OP. [/quote] Oh wow. So if OP lives in Arlington she would be looking at a $1200 bill??! OMG. Iam not op but my hear sinks just thinking of getting a bill like this.[/quote]
