How Much Is That Leak Costing You? (City of Smyrna Water and Sewer Rates)
Most online drip calculators use a generic national water rate and ignore sewer entirely. This calculator uses the City of Smyrna tiered water schedule plus the flat $9.30 per 1,000-gallon sewer rate, so the number it returns is accurate for your home.
At baseline usage, Smyrna water and sewer combined cost $14.38 per 1,000 gallons (Tier 1 water $5.08 plus sewer $9.30). That is the highest combined baseline marginal rate in our service network, which means even a slow leak adds up faster than the generic calculators show.
