how many of you lads out there are on meters? And how much extra compared to rates are you paying? ROUGHLY? I use around 1000l + a week and produce all my pure water via a 40/40 ro set up. I am at present the only one left in my road without a meter? Noisy neighbours have been asking a few questions about my water consumsion noisy f@@@ers just wondered what the extra cost would work out at?

[Glyn H]

At a 1000 litres a week - nothing to worry about - only £2.50 -£3.00

I use less than 1000L a week and mine went up by £500 per year

Depending on the ratio of filtrate to waste water your system produces, it can be very expensive indeed. e.g if your system is discarding water at a ratio of 3:2 you will be drawing 5000 liters for every 2000 you produce as filtrate, add sewerage charges and you can see what i mean.

On the bright side if you keep accurate records your accountant should put some of your bill through the books.

ours currently runs at around 600 per year for approx 2500-3000 litres a week

thanks guys going by that figure not a massive massive price increase

But why in your position would you volunteer to have a meter fitted? Just because the rest of the road does? You are doing nothing wrong.

[karygate]

just tell them you have already got one and the cost of it comes off your tax

Hi. I worked mine cost out at 0.006p per litre based on my true water charge. But if you have a water meter fitted on an outside tap and tell the water board its for your garden you wont be charge for the sewerage part of the bill.
Mart.
