We live in Auckland and are needing to get watertank to satisfy stormwater needs for an extension. We'd like to use it for toilet/laundry/ outside hose as well. As I understand it "ideally" we'd inform watercare who would then charge us $500 to put a watermeter on the tank and our bill would then consist of 1) A fixed charge 2) a volumetric charge for our mains water 3) a volumetric charge for our tank water.
Has anyone done this?
Considering the outlay and hassle for the tank/plumbing/maintenance/meter and it not being potable it seems there's not a lot of incentive to be eco-conscious with rainwater.
