But talking to my neighbor of a different duplex building, the module controls the sprinklers to their lawn as well. My water bill triples in the summer months when the sprinklers get turned on. It&#39;s twice the amount than the house I lived in previously in the same area and size.</p> <p>Is there anyway to tell if I&#39;m paying for my neighbors sprinklers?</p> </div><!-- SC_ON --> &#32; submitted by &#32; <a href="https://www.reddit.com/user/heretwonotparty"> /u/heretwonotparty </a> <br/> <span><a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/Plumbing/comments/1ohul0q/how_to_tell_if_im_paying_for_my_neighbors/">[link]</a></span> &#32; <span><a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/Plumbing/comments/1ohul0q/how_to_tell_if_im_paying_for_my_neighbors/">[comments]</a></span> Plumbing /u/heretwonotparty What’s missing https://www.reddit.com/r/Plumbing/comments/1ohukm4/whats_missing/ Plumbing help offered here, please post pictures. urn:uuid:5c874af9-9a9c-b226-7945-971a785cd247 Mon, 27 Oct 2025 23:50:37 +0000 <table> <tr><td> <a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/Plumbing/comments/1ohukm4/whats_missing/"> <img src="https://preview.redd.it/14gh93r3sqxf1.jpeg?width=640&amp;crop=smart&amp;auto=webp&amp;s=3ef933689e8b71d09c631a0cdddab4b2a5113896" alt="What’s missing" title="What’s missing" /> </a> </td><td> <!-- SC_OFF --><div class="md"><p>This drain plug must have a piece missing but I don’t know what it is- when I put it in it won’t screw in and just sits there but my kids easily knock it out of place.
