does anyone know the prices charged by the water company for water and services. Thanks.
This is a copy of an old water bill, can someone please explain it to me. I know basura and other charges are extra. Just want Agua costs. Thanks.

For some reason this is in Items for Sale section. Maybe Jan could move it to an appropriate place

However:
Agua Water
Cuota de Servicio or Cost of supplying water
Consumo de 0 a 21 m3 Cost of water used up to 21 cubic metres

Conservacion Contador Environmental Charges
Cuota de Servicio As above
Alcantalrillado Sewage
Cuota de Servicio As above
Consumo de 0 a 21 m3 Sewerage costs up to 21 cubic metres
You then get two rates of VAT applied, one on services and one on consumption.

At one time it would have had basura (waste collection) on it but this has been removed and you now pay an annual cost for that.

Thanks Marcliff. Still a bit of a Spanglish answer and I can’t see the price for water. For instance, if my meter says I have used 100 cubic metres, how much is that in real money EXCLUDING Iva and all costs. Just water price.
Thanks.

Your bill says you have used 5 cubic metres of water at .9085 cents per cubic meter.

Cantidad = Quantity 5
Precio Unitario = Price per unit 0.9085
Importe = Cost 4.54 (5 x 0.9085)

Sewage is charged at .1565 cents per cubic metre and the 5 units you have used cost 78 cents.

The rest is for providing the service and taxes.

Thanks

My water bill usage is broken down into 3 figures (Consumo bloque 1,2,3), with different unit costs for each.

Bloque 1 is priced at 0.9085 per unit.
Bloque 2 is priced at 1.2045 per unit.
Bloque 3 is priced at 1.9752 per unit.

What does this mean, is usage banded on a rising scale?

Up to 21 cubic metres
Up to 39 cubic metres
Over 39 cubic metres
And, yes, the more you use the higher the charge per unit.
Those were the limits by Hidraqua but would think the same applies to Aguagest.

Well that’s my next bill just doubled.

Thanks Marcliff, but bloque 1 consumption is shown as 18m3 on my bill, bloque 2 is 21m3 and the balance is bloque 3.

Bloques 1 and 2 total 39m3, so perhaps bloque 1 is up to 18m3?

Different companies? I don't know. Mine is listed as up to 21 m3 on the Hidraqua bill for the lowest rate.
The most we've ever used has been 12 m3 with the normal average 8 to 10 but we don't have a pool.

So, latest bill simply says 0 to 21 m3 and 9 m3 so water cost €8.18.
