Default Halving water bills with large butts?

Wrote in message:
Hi All, I have heard it suggested that if you get four monster water holders and divert rainwater into them (and do nothing else), then your water co will let you off your sewerage charges. A quick google only showed one off rebates for filling ponds / swimming pools. Does anyone have details of such a scheme (I think we are with Southern Water or it?s descendants). Best regardsTIAChris


Anglian Water suggested I get a sub-meter to measure what I use
for watering the garden, car washing etc, e.g. anything which
doesn't drain into the sewer. They then deduct an appropriate
amount for the sewerage not used. I assumed they would charge a
lot to install a sub-meter, but they directed me to Amazon (£20
odd quids), for a meter which connects in-line with the outside
tap and hose pipe. Not something they advertise, so may be worth
asking your water company if they allow the same
deduction.
