This is because prices actually depend on where you live. The biggest increase will be hit by Anglian Water customers, who are facing a combined increase of 10.5% across water and sewage bills, as well as Hafren Dyfrdwy customers, who’ll see a more than 12% difference, although their bills are still smaller than in other parts of the UK. These figures however, are averages as there’s regional variations and other individual factors such as whether you’ve got a meter or how much water you use. For those in Scotland, meanwhile, it depends on your council tax band and is covered by a combined service charge, however there's been an average increase of 5%. Water bills are going up highest unsurprisingly for those who have combined water and sewage costs, with the highest at 12% being much more than south west water, for example, with a 1.8% increase. Although water companies have tried to absorb extra costs, it’s simply a “postcode lottery" with many customers who can’t afford their bills slipping through the net. Should this be you, here are some of the best ways to reduce your bills or access support. Our first tip is to see if you’d benefit from a water meter. If you have more or the same number of bedrooms in your house than people, it’s definitely worth seeing if you’d benefit. It’s important to emphasise that not everyone will save with a water meter, but water companies do in fact give you two years to trial one of them, and you can switch back at any point if you’re unhappy. Use the Consumer Council for Water's water meter calculator on its website for more info. Meanwhile, so much of the water we oft use in the home comes from the hot tap, meaning installing a water meter helps to double up on both water as well as energy savings. Halving daily shower time from 10 minutes to 5 minutes could mean a saving of more than £700 per year. You can also reduce both your water and electricity usage by installing a water efficient shower head. Our third tip is to sign up for a water social tariff. Sadly, you can’t change the water company that you’re with, but you may in fact be able to switch your tariff. All water companies will offer reduced tariffs to low-income customers and households, but the eligibility of this type of support varies from company to company. However, many people don’t know about this kind of help, but try contacting the company directly. It's also definitely worth requesting water-saving devices from the water company that you’re with. Many companies such devices for free that can and should shave pounds off of your bills. These freebies usually consist of shower timers, buffalo bags as well as things such as leaky loo detection stripes. Water saving devices on your toilet cistern could save you between 1-3 litres every time you use your loo. Other devices, such as water butts usually store about 200l of water when fitted. As well as being better for watering plants, using rainwater in the garden reduces the treated water that you use. Water-efficient showerhead, with the cheapest of these being between £10 to £15, can save you both water and electricity by usng approximately 8 litres per shower rather than 8-15. One tip further these is to fill up a jug of cold water. This is a small everyday action that’s really easy to fix. Get that in the fridge everyday and that way, you always have a supply of cold water without running the tap so much. Another one is to make sure you use leftover cooking water, or water from rinsing your veg. This is great to water your plants with or to use on the garden. Dishwashers however actually save 6000L a year, stoppng pre-rinsing before saves another 1000L every year. What do you think of the price increases, or perhaps you have a fab way with which to save or skimp on your water bill around the home or elsewhere?
