Running water sounds in my wall

We had a rat running around inside our wall once. It really freaked out the wife

Water softener?

No water softener. No toilets running. Sounds like when your toilet fills.

When I went to turn the water off at the street I don't think the meter moved

No. The test is whether the meter runs when all the water in the house is off.

A/c? If you have an a/c it has a condensate drain that drains water off coil?

You may have a water main leak on the outside. Turn your house water off. If

Do you have sprinklers connected to your culinary? Could be a sprinkler leak.

I considered that. My sprinkler pipes/valves are near where I hear the noise in

HONOMO

I could still hear water running regardless of where the sprinklers were running

Ok hopefully that's it (i'd prefer that over a slab leak). I'll see if I can

Could also be a running toilet (need to change the flapper).

Sounds like you already accounted for this.

Any luck?
