For the last few months our water bill have risen from its normal monthly rate of around 1,000 Baht to 3,900 Baht which obviously is quite alarming.
I looked for leaks and suspected we had a problem with the main pipe from the meter connection to the main house so we put in a new pipe and cut off the old one. No real change from the very high monthly charge so I obviously got it wrong.
Last month I turned the meter connection off at night and only turned it on when we needed water and the bill come down to 2,100 Baht.
Obviously we have a leak somewhere within the walls or under the house and as our water circulation in the house is quite complex with 5 bathrooms and two kitchens I just cannot bypass the old piping so easily.
I have heard that some plumbers have a special hearing device that can detect leakage within floors, walls and foundations.
Is this true and where can I find a plumber and or such a device here in Thailand?
Any and all suggestions are much appreciated.
