Been having huge water bills. Found out that our bills were 50-70 dollars more than everyone elses. Found the dishwasher was to blame. The water was going through the dishwasher into the drain under the sink.
About half a gallon of water per minute, 27.5 gallons an hour, 19500 gallons a month. Enough to fill my 24’ pool 1.5 times. OUCH. Im going to replace the inlet valve. Im just can’t find any info about a problem like this. The water runs even when the dishwasher is off and the door is open. There was never any noise made unless your ear was next to the p-trap. The water goes through the drain hose into the kitchen drain. Shouldn’t the discharge have a valve also??
