How Much Do You Pay For Your Water

[Semper]

This question does not apply to hotel guests. I'm talking about B per "unit" or 1000 liters. Anyone

[Thaifan2]

Water charge is on a sliding scale as per usage .Mine for a house with 4 people plus garden is around B200 a month .

Yes, sorry to bother you about a silly question. But obviously you had some free time to give this information.

Now, back to your desk.

Not always that I have free time, just some times in this periode(still do not know for how long I will have time like this) that I want take a rest a bit after many years 7days a week working. Here(In this website) seems I am sitting in many different class rooms (English, economic, idea exchange, humanity, learn to be better, profit and non-profit life,....) , I like it , we do not need to show who we are and when we want to help other people or think what we can do for them, we do not need to choose black or white, poor/rich, good/not good people, just do it then keep in our mind... today we have something done or learn something.

I asked this same question a few months ago on this forum and finally received a couple of useful answers about water rates and why it is so high for our condo building:

[bdenner]

4.0 Baht per unit (Cubic Meter) here in the rice paddies of Isaan

[Dellboy218]

A.Hangdong 5B per unit or a tad over.

[el jefe]

I'm curious -- how much is the OP paying per month for water?

Even with my wife watering our medium sized garden every day in a typical March/April, the highest water bill we've ever received was about 230 baht.

[richard10365]

I pay about 500 per month in a 2 story house with 2 people.

[Spoonman]

Looking at last months bill I used 16 units @ 20b per unit, I live in East Pattaya.

We pay 300-350 per month. And the "water guy" don't read the meter. I think it's expensive.

[paulchiangmai]

Eight Baht a unit here in my village just outside Chiang Mai. Good water too. Up from five Baht a year ago.

No attack/insult intended. If that was your impression, I'm sorry.

well Kudos to you for apologizing there's still hope on TV for politeness and 'niceness' cheers!

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.

Moobahn water Hang Dong. First 2 Units 30 Baht after that about 8 Baht per unit. 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]

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.

[antony77]

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)

[PoorSucker]

I pay nothing, my meter is broken.

[Thaifan2]

I'm living in Pattaya. To Jomtien, 1 unit cost me 30 bath but in Naklua, the unit is 50 bath. Depend of the management of your condo.[] . Yes, one m3 is 1000 liter, even in Thailand

I have a Condo in Park Lane Jomtien and its 27 c a unit .I thought that high but maybe not .Up here in my house in Chiang Mai its probably around 15 c a unit ( but hard to work out as its a sliding scale ) .

You too? 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.
