Excessive High Water Bills

[✈ Elle ☀]

Hiya Newportshrops. Just had our latest bill in... and it was just over 30 euros for our 2 bed, 2 bathroom house. We run all our drinking and cooking water through a filter too... whereas most people buy bottled. We have a pool, and hose our patio down quite a bit as we have a puppy 

That cost is for 4 adults (2 of which are only here half the time) and 3 dogs.

That's in Playa Blanca on the mains supply.

Les,

It does depend if you are on the main Island supply, or whether it is developer's water, or delivered by Tanker.  Elle is on the main supply which is cheap.  I live in the Western half of Playa Blanca using piped water from Club Lanzarote, which costs much more - €3.24 or £2.70 per M3.  Those on tanked water pay even more.  However, I'm not complaining: Wessex Water, where I used to live - charges £3.60 per M3 (inc sewage, which is included in the Lanz prices) and £61 pa standing charge!

Not silly questions at all Les - feel free to ask whatever you like... just not our bank balances (or overdrafts) ha ha
