now having water meters fitted - in fact, there are more metered customers than there are unmetered customers in the island.</h2><p>If you have a water meter fitted to your property, then you are charged according to the quantity of water that you actually use, rather than the TRP of your property. Our figures show that on average, most customers can save between 12 - 15% on their water bills by having a meter fitted. However this is very much dependent on the TRP of your property, the number of occupants and how much water the household uses. </p><p><span class="positionleft"><img src="./media/inline/g/e/meter_1_.jpg" alt="A typical Guernsey Water meter " title="A typical Guernsey Water meter" class="positionleft noborder" style="width: 1000px" /></span></p><p>A water meter puts you in control of your water bills. If you reduce your water consumption, then you will also reduce your water bills, Guernsey Water are here to give you advice on how you can control and reduce the amount of water you use.
