Mr Save-It says save water, save energy, save money

Our metering programme

We are changing the way we supply and bill customers for water in the South East of England. Between 2010 and 2015, we aim to install water meters in the majority of homes we supply in Sussex, Kent, Hampshire and the Isle of Wight.

The metering programme is an important part of our plan for managing the demand for water alongside tackling leakage and enhancing water resources.

The Southern Water region has been classed as an area of severe water stress. The effects of climate change, with warmer and drier years, alongside the projected population growth in the region will put further pressure on resources.

Ask Mr Save-It the answers to the most common questions.

Did you know?

In 1989, we fitted water meters to 93 per cent of properties on the Isle of Wight.
Customers on the island now use on average 122 litres per person per day
Unmeasured customers on the mainland use on average 148 litre per person per day
