What factors can affect my water bill?

There are several factors that can influence your water bill when you are receiving services from Anglian Water. Primarily, the amount of water you consume is the most significant contributor. Your household's consumption may vary seasonally; for instance, usage tends to increase during the warmer months when outdoor activities such as gardening, filling a pool, or washing vehicles are more frequent. Another influence can be the type of billing method used. Anglian Water may offer two main options: metered billing and unmetered billing. In a metered system, customers pay according to the amount of water they consume as measured by a meter. In an unmetered system, customers are charged a fixed rate based on their property type and size. Additionally, household practices can affect water usage. Simple actions like fixing leaks, taking shorter showers, or using water-efficient appliances can lead to significant savings on your water bill. It is also essential to consider any changes in household size. For example, if you have guests staying with you or if your family expands, water usage may increase, impacting your bill. Lastly, local environmental factors such as drought conditions may result in tiered pricing structures that affect billing charges.
