What is a water efficiency home visit?
One of our team will come to your home and check all taps, toilets, and showers to see if they can fit suitable free water efficiency products, these include:
- Showerhead
- Shower flow restrictor
- Shower timer
- Tap aerator
- Save a flush bag
- Hosepipe gun
Our colleague will also share advice on how to save water and energy. If you are a metered customer, they can also help to show you how to check for leaks, and how to find and read your water meter. If they find a leak during the visit, don’t worry, they’ll let our Cartref plumbers know who may be able to come out and fix it for free. For more information about our Cartref scheme click here.
How much could I be saving?
Did you know that on average, customers save 63 litres per day from these visits? This is equivalent to £75 on your annual bill for metered customers.
Depending on your current water fittings, if you have a water efficiency showerhead fitted you could save over 55 litres per day, a tap aerator could save you 18 litres a day, and a save a flush toilet cistern bag 9.6 litres a day.
Not on a water meter?
We can help you save on energy too. Cutting down on your shower time not only saves water but can make a great saving on your energy bill - and for those customers with electric showers, potentially over £100 a year!
