Issue summary

Residential park home owners are being overcharged for water due to shared metering systems, causing them to pay more than they should and subsidise wastage from site infrastructure leaks and the park owner’s usage.

Action requested

The House of Commons urges the Government to require all water companies to provide individual water meters for each residential mobile home on protected sites at no cost to the residents (except in Scotland).

Key facts

  • More than 570 individuals online and South East Cornwall constituents have raised this issue.
  • Many park homes do not have their own water meters, leading to higher costs for residents.
  • Individual metering would encourage quicker repairs of leakages by park owners.
