el jefe Posted June 4, 2011 Share Posted June 4, 2011 I'm curious -- how much is the OP paying per month for water?

elektrified Posted June 4, 2011 Share Posted June 4, 2011 My bill is usually around 220-300 max. I water a good sized garden daily and we have a baby so the washing machine is being used on an almost daily basis. We use a LOT of water. But the highest the bill has ever been is 300 - moobaan water - Sansai. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just 2 of us in a Bungalow and the highest bill I've ever paid was 182 Baht and that was April 2010 when it was really hot and the gardens needed more water. Even when I had builders in doing an extension and they seemed to be using water for fun my bill was still only 152 Baht. Bargain I reckon, as is our Electricity too.

naboo Posted June 4, 2011 Share Posted June 4, 2011 5B per unit in Saraphi. This last month I used a massive 5 units, nearly doubling the previous two months of 3 units each. I don't have a garden, or a washing machine. Just a shower and occasionally I have to wash a plate up when I bring some food home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
antony77 Posted June 4, 2011 Share Posted June 4, 2011 It very much depends on which month. Our water bill during the rainy season is about 600 per month and 1000 during the dry season. (6 persons including servants) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We had that for three months as well, and the owners were too lazy to do anything about it. Shame it wasn't the electricity meter, that would have made an actual difference.
