Have you reviewed your City of Chicago water bill lately? Here at HausFS we are seeing many clients with bills that, billing cycle after billing cycle, show an estimated reading rather than an actual one. Some clients who take the time to contact the DOW and schedule an actual reading are being rewarded with huge credits once the billing is adjusted to reflect actual usage. In some cases, the problem is a faulty meter that requires replacing for accurate future readings.
We encourage all small condominium associaitons to review their current bills, schedule an actual reading and ensure that you are paying for your actual water usage, not an estimated amount.
