Costs for tap water units
We use this money to provide you with clean tap water every day! Because your home does not have a water meter, you pay for the number of units in your home. The larger your home, the more units we charge.

Taxes
Your bill also includes 2 types of taxes. The tap water tax is an environmental tax. Through this tax, the government wants you to be economical in your use of water. You pay a fixed amount for every m3 (1000 litres). The more water you use, the higher your tax will be.
You will also pay 9% VAT on all costs above this.
