Calculate the savings

Switching to a meter could save you money. This will depend on the number of people in your house, whether you are a high, average or low user and how much you are currently paying on an unmetered basis.

The first step to help you decide whether a water meter is right for you is to work out how much water your household uses in a year.

To do this you can use our automatic calculator. All you need to do is to work out how many times per week your household uses various water-using appliances. You can then calculate the approximate total bill you would pay for water services, if you switched to a water meter.

To get a more accurate picture of your water usage, complete the following table.

Number of people in your household:

In a week, how often does your household:

Flush the toilet: (9 litres *)

Have a bath: (90 litres *)

Have a shower: (30 litres *)

Use the washing machine: (100 litres *)

Fill the kitchen sink: (9 litres *)

Use the dishwasher: (50 litres *)

Use a hose or sprinkler (in minutes): (10 litres *)

Your estimated yearly water usage is:

0 cubic metres
