The short answer

In Salt Lake City, 13% of housing was built before 1940. A bill that climbs with nothing damp indoors points to the private side of the meter, outside the building, where water drains away without ever showing.

What this site is

AcousticLeak is a referral service, not a contractor. We connect homeowners with independent contractors. Contractors are required to hold whatever credential their state or municipality demands.

Nothing here is a statement about what your own utility will credit; only your utility can tell you that.

How it is actually found

Acoustic listening on the fittings, then correlation between two points on the line, narrows a leak to within a meter or so before anything is opened. Ground-penetrating and tracer-gas methods follow where listening cannot.

A rising bill with nothing damp indoors

That combination almost always means the leak is on the private side of the meter and outside the building — under a driveway, a lawn or a slab, where it drains away without ever showing.
