Yep mine was 158,000 litres.
Seems such a waste but then when you think two thirds of our planet is water, it's a just a drop in the ocean, literally.
There's plenty of water just like theres plenty of oil, the greedy companies just want us to think these resources are scarce to keep the prices up.

Dunno depends on the rejection rate of my ro. I suppose most days I use four to five hundred of pure. Household usage on top of that again.

£547.91 on water alone. Get a bit of rebate on the sewerage side.

Water £2.0949 per cubic meter
Sewerage £1.7910 per cubic meter
