The argument about that companies i.e garden centers and coca-cola use thousands of liters of water is these companies pay business rates,
now how many of you water fed user have told your water company that your are using your homes for purifying water
If you did tell your water company that you were using it for commercial use then you get hit big time.
So that means any use of a hose would be fround apon, so if you want use that argument that your using it for business then tell the water company and see what bills come in then.
