Your thoughts on water meters

[Tengu]

I hope to rent my house out one day. Should I get one fitted?

Do you have a choice? Without one, how will the water and sewer company know how much you've used? (and thus what to charge you) or that matter, how do they know now? (I take it from your post you don't currently have one)

All houses in the UK will have them fitted within the next 5 years. Don't bother, it will get done for you.

Meters are fairly new in the UK if you dont have one the old way was paying a fixed Water rate for the area you live in if you use more than the average you win if you use less you lose

our family of 4 art a lot better off paying with a meter for what we actually use

If its free why not, when mine was fitted it saved me 75% off my bill, however this is not the experience of others!

Ps. Bob is correct they will be coming to all houses soon!
