Welcome

We all like to make a saving - and one of the easiest ways to reduce your water bill is to apply for a meter.

To help you decide whether a meter is right for you, why not spend a few minutes completing our water usage calculator? It only takes a few clicks, and we'll tell you immediately if you could make a saving with a meter.

If you already have a water meter in your home, our calculator will give you some hints and tips on how to make further water savings, helping to reduce your water bill. Give it a try - you might be surprised how much you could save.

Please note: This calculator is suitable for customers who pay for water and wastewater services which is the majority of our customers. For the small number of customers who only pay for water services (for example, you have a septic tank which collects your wastewater) we can still work out your saving, please call us on 0345 672 2999.

Water efficiency rating

Consumption based on living in your property

If you have a different number of people living in your property, please let us know here.

Your average consumption litres per day

Your water consumption can be of the following
  • Below average
  • Average
  • Above average

If your consumption is higher than average for the number of people in your household, it's often because you're using more water than usual. This can happen for a number of reasons. For example:

  • you have family visiting or children returning from university
  • you are spending more time at home due to work, or because of an illness
  • or maybe you've recently fitted a water-hungry appliance, such as a power shower.

If you see your tap dripping or toilet push-button sticking, then it's wasting water and you should get a plumber to look at it, as this also increases your consumption. There are many ways you can save water (and money) in your home. Click here to see our other water-saving tips.
