Assessed Charges

An annual charge will be payable only where a domestic customer has requested a free meter option but this has been refused by the water supplier on the grounds of impracticality or unreasonable cost.  This charge will be based on the Company’s assessment of the likely consumption at the premises having regard to the circumstances of each case and using the Company’s consumption data and anticipated occupancy.
