To determine the cost-effectiveness of a water conservation audit targeting single family detached homes and including actual installation of devices and repair of toilet leaks, the North Marin Water District invited randomly selected upper quartile water users in the single family detached home residential classification to make an appointment for a free home water audit. The pilot audit project tested the hypothesis that a home water audit program including actual installation of devices and repair of toilet leaks by the audit, and irrigation scheduling advice would yield water savings of 6.9% with a simple payback from the customer's viewpoint in 2 years.
