Has anyone contacted their water supplier to let them know they have an r/o set up in their garage?
I'm on a meter and I heard I could get the cost per unit reduced.
Any tips before I ring them?
Thanks
Terry.

They'll prob charge ya more for being a business ?

Yep I told Anglian water
The first thing they did was put me on commercial tariff which upped the price a little. They then charge vat on my sewer charge. But I got a rebate on my sewage charge though because I proved that some of my water usage never went down sewer as I fitted a secondary meter last year in front of ro.

So would you say you are better off or worse by being on a commercial tarrif?
How much water do you use for the business?

I find it difficult to calculate all I know is before I was WFP my water bill was about £35.00 a month but now its gone up to £53 I think I must have a bit of arrears to catch up on. When I submitted my Secondary meter charge they just reduced my bill by £12.00 so I definitely feel I am worse off by telling AW.
I don't filter that much water in comparison with others though probably at most only 600l pure per week. So about 1200l including waste.

I reckon you'll be looking at about £100 a month bud.
It's not as expensive as a lot reckon.
Work out how many litres you use compared to your turnover.
It really is minuscule.

i hope youre right :) i;ve budgetted £225 per month in my savings... but apart from that i;m doing the head in the sand trick. not very business like i know. will give them a call and find out

Water here is roughly £3 per 1000 litres in + out.
You use c.1800 litres a day total. Even without a sub meter fitted that's a fiver a day.
20 days a month? £100.
Save your £200odd though-look at it as a bonus when the bill comes in!
