Because the nature of a leaking pipe is that it is leaking running water, it can waste excess water, causing your monthly utility bills to increase. If you have noticed a random increase on your monthly water bill, in conjunction with any of the following signs, this is a major indicator that you are in need of help from Academy Air.
