Water-Saving Gadgets to Cut Bills28/04/2009 |

| Thousands of newly metered Thames Water customers are being offered free products in a bid to help them reduce their water consumption and bring down bills. Water-saving devices including aerated showerheads, water butts to collect rainwater for use outdoors and digital shower timers will be given free of charge to customers who have had a meter fitted since April 2008. |

Lesley Tait, Thames Water's Water Resources Sustainability Manager, said that this offer could save around 60 litres per household per day, that's enough water to fill around 2,500 buckets per year, and make bill savings of around GBP25. Those customers who adopt additional water-saving techniques - which may only involve small behavioural changes such as turning off the tap when brushing their teeth - could see even greater savings. By reducing the amount of hot water you use you could also save money on your energy bill.
All the products on offer have been specially designed to make saving water as simple as possible. They are easy to fit, and once installed saving water will become second nature.
Customers' feedback on the products, water savings and study will be used by Thames Water to identify how even greater savings can be made in future as the company embarks on further water efficiency work.
