Southern Water shares money-saving tips to help customers cut down on their water bills
The water company is trying to show how small changes in your daily routine can help save water in your home and garden, which will eventually lead to cheaper bills.
Customers can apply for a free water-saving home visit, where an engineer could fit up to £100 of free water-saving devices in kitchens, bathrooms and toilets.

Katy Taylor, Southern Water chief customer officer, said: “We all rely on water every day, but our population is growing fast, and climate change is bringing greater risk of floods and drought. This puts pressure on our water supply and there’s only so much we can take from our environment.
“To conserve this precious resource, we’ve committed to reduce leakage, we’re looking at new ways to reuse water and we’re helping our customers use less water.
“Get in touch with us and we’ll book a convenient time for one of our engineers to visit your home. In under two hours, they’ll explain how simple, everyday changes could help you save water, save energy – and, in turn, save money on your bills.”
