I share a well with my neighbor we have 2 dwelling condo. My unit concest ofmyself, and her unit has 3 people as of now. We share the following which areall connected to my electric Meter... well pump, water conditioner system, electric base board heater thatkeeps the pump room warm during the winter all in a room in my garage. Also asprinkle system that shared on the front property. It's a 50/50 shared property. She had nationally agreed with hand shake when she bought the unit next to meback November 2014, I came up with a charge $ 50.00 which she agreed and waspaying this till past May 2015 she stopped paying her monthly obligation Tome. I was willing to drop the price down, she putting up a fight. She is reneging On everything, I had no choice put to seek legal advice and the issueis still not resolved. She wanted to use a kill- a- watt gizmo in my garage, I'mNot her landlord to be checking each day that this gizmo is functioning Right,and again given her the convenience Every month timeing this and that off myelectric bill. I think not... It's not the long term solution, especially if Iwant to sell my unit no one wants to be involved with a gizmo. Then myneighbors chopped up with a internet chart from Runstone Electric Associationenergy fromAlexandra M,N from 2014, We live here in New Jersey not M,N. The chart saysit varies from family to family. She only wants to pay $ 15.00 a month for her Calculations We're wrong from that chart, also there was no mention how much asprinkler system runs on electric, my neighbor has no idea.... I think the best solution would be a second well... Do you have any other ideas, well can becostly, she would have to pay half since it's a shared property..

Probably because the monthly base charge for a meter is probably more than the cost of the small amount of electric used. And then there is the expense of the rewiring, since the other unit owner stopped paying for water altogether, I doubt she's going to agree to pay for re-metering. And then it would only solve part of the problem anyway. Who's accounting for the OP loading salt into the water conditioner, probably buying it, lugging it home, the cost of that equipment, the pump, repair/replacement of it in the future, etc? If she thinks $50 is too much for water, she probably thinks all that should be free too. No, they've got themselves a right proper mess.

Yep, I posted that couple days ago too. And I wouldn't be surprised that has something to do with the issue. Like maybe the other unit owner saw the crazy watering and figures she's paying for it.
