Family fortunes

If you have a small family, live alone or as a couple, a water meter could well prove a winner.

Even if you have a large family, it’s worth checking if you might benefit from a meter - especially if your current fixed bill is high due to your home having a high rateable value.

Remember, our lowest bill guarantee means you won’t be worse off during your two year trial and if you don’t make a saving you can switch back to your fixed bill - you can’t lose!

KatieKatie's story

31 year-old Katie recently moved  into her first  home. She lives alone, and she takes showers, not baths (no time!) and doesn’t have a garden – unless you count a window box with wilting  herbs! Her fixed water bill is £680. Katie could save as much as £200 by switching to a meter.

Kathryn & BrianKathryn & Brian's story

Retired couple Kathryn and Brian have been living in their leafy bungalow for 11 years. Their children have long since flown the nest, but their three grandchildren, and immaculately tended garden keep them more than busy. They use a water butt to keep their flowers blooming. Their fixed water bill for this year is £1070. The couple could save as much as £400 by switching to a meter.

The WangsThe Wang's story

Steve and Li Wang couldn’t be prouder of their baby girl. With nappies, night feeds and CBeebies currently dominating their lives, they’ve precious little time to think about their utility bills, or saving water for that matter. That’s sure to change in time, especially as the overheads on their semi are high. Their fixed water bill for this year is £930. The Wangs could save around £100 by switching to a meter.

The Hendersons

The Hendersons

The Hendersons are an all-action family of four (five if you include Jojo the dog). When they’re not all mountain-biking together, mum and dad are ferrying son Max and daughter Alice to football practice and street dance class. Needless to say, the washing machine and dishwasher never stop at their house. Their fixed water bill for this year is £950. It’s unlikely that the Hendersons would save money with a meter.
