Cost of 400L water these days

[DeLaCruz]

Any idea what the cost of filling a 400L tank is currently or where i could find that out as accurately as possible ? I have a job coming up where i am using a third parties water and have to pay for it so need to be able to estimate the cost

£16.80 from Spotless Water, in the majority of sites

Jesus that's extortionate, why aren't people just producing their own at that price?

£20 from spotless here.

Just take a meter reading before and after filling get the price per cm from them .

I would say you will need 1000lts of tap water to produce 400l of pure. Are you just trying to get the cost of the water from the third party?
United Utilities charge £1.832 per cubic meter of water (1000litres) plus £1.221 for drainage as they assume what enters your property ends up down the drain!
So a total of £3.053 per cubic meter (1000lts).
If you are trying to add your costs (membrane, filters, resin etc) then that's a bit more complex.

On most of our travels we don't have access to an outside tap and I doubt the hotel would allow us to fill up there with the booster pump and generator running. However in the NE we're lucky to make much more than 50p per litre used, in the south we have found making over a £1 a litre is easily achieved so even paying £33 to fill our tank we are still quids in. We also use more than a tank full a day so a quick fill up saves us time and therefore money.

That makes sense, I've heard of a company called Clear View Water in the south that are supposedly half the price of Spotless Water, have you ever given them a try?

Will only be a matter of time that they have parity with spotless due to costs rising. I think under 5p a litre of pure is good value and expect it to rise by at least inflation.

I've heard of them and looked at their website.. Currently Spotless have more accessible sites for me and saving £10 on water might cost me an hour so they're a no go.

GripperTank have a resin calculator, so you could use that and get a rough idea what your resin would cost per 400lts.

thats really nice tool ty - £5.82 per 400L is good value it think but also not a zero sum...
