Water Meter Costs

[Cghwindowcleaning]

I was just interested to know for those that are on a metre what your water cost are.

I know this will vary from supplier and area but what kind of price are people paying for 1000 litres.?

Looking at about £1.50 for a 1000L

And about £2.40 for a 1000L sewerage charge.

About £4 for every 1000L you take unless you get a sub meter.

Good luck with your water company on a rebate lol

Thanks Damo

This is around the price I'm expecting trying to get hold of and get a answer from my water supplier is not as easy as it should be and the online prices are out of date.

Even at £5 a 1000 litres with no rebate it still works out 60-70% cheaper than buying it.

Your water company is a &(&^£""! to deal with. They are the ONLY water company in the UK to have it in their terms and conditions WFP is not to be used in a drought. The last time there was a drought it was appealed against and they lost. So don't worry on that. On the rebate you won't get far as they are %&%$%& ! They will give you a rebate but then require you to pay commercial rates.

Buying water will never be as cheap as making it.

To give you an idea on costs its about £10 to produce a 1000 Liters.

Than water charge on meter, resin, filters and misc.

Ran a pond business before window cleaning. Hose pipe ban nearly killed a whole year. Got into a three way argument with water company and environment agencie. No hose pipe no filling ponds. Says water companies web sites an muppets on the phone. Environment agencie says we have a duty of care to fish. Ruddy nightmare it was. Can we wfp if they put a hose pipe ban on. Can we even fill up. My nabour will be on the phone reporting me to everyone ten minutes after ban starts.

I'm Thames water. I was informed when I started w.f.p roughly 9 years ago that Thames water is the second hardest in the country /emoticons/sad.png.

When I showered down my dads house (perranporth, Cornwall), I noticed the difference immediately so we have had a kinnetico water softener put in.

What this has to do with metres, I have no idea
