The word is out! UK Businesses and Public Sector to face another significant increase in water bills
This year Southern Water take the prize for the largest increase in metered water bills.
Last year 11.6 percent but this year 18.3 percent.
Wastewater charges last year 10.1 percent and this year 13.1 percent.
These are significant but not unexpected water bill increases and further emphasis the need to tender water supply contracts for a better deal, and then strive to reduce water consumption by engaging in water efficiency and water management.
Saving of 30 percent can often be achieved, this is the message from Graham Mann, Director of Switchwatersupplier.com
United Utilities charges are up on last year also with the water this year up 9.2 percent and the wastewater charges up by 12.6 percent.
The dreaded surface water and highways drainage charges are up by 9.7 percent
Trade effluent charges are also up by 13 percent.
When the water retail fee is factored in again this year the overall increases are significant.
