$50 Credit on water/wastewater bills

Loyalist Township offers a $50 credit on water/wastewater bills to assist residents with purchasing a low-flow toilet or high-efficiency faucet to conserve water. To apply, you will need:

  • Detailed information of installed fixture in accordance with the terms and conditions.
  • An electronic copy of the invoice/bill of sale.
  • Your water/wastewater account number

Council approves an annual allotment to this program; therefore, applications are first-come, first-served.

If the credit is granted, the credit will be applied to the next bill if processing time permits. If there is an issue with your application, the Accounting Clerk will contact you via telephone at the phone number provided on your application.

Did you know:

A cubic metre (m3) of water is 1000 litres. Some examples that are equivalent to one m3 are as follows:

  • 7 filled standard sized bathtubs;

  • 5 washing machine loads;

  • 20 dishwasher loads;

  • 36 minutes in the shower with a standard shower head;

  • 1 hour use of a low-flow lawn sprinkler;

  • 22 minutes use of an underground irrigation system;

  • 9 days of a leaking faucet (steady drip);

  • 0.4 days of a steady running toilet.

Switching to a low flow/high efficiency fixture could save a family of four can up to:

  • 41 m3/year in water when switching to a 13L to a 6L toilet (16 flushes per day) – up to $206 in consumption charges/year (2022 rates).

  • 12 m3/year in water when switching from a standard to a high-efficiency faucet (12 minutes of runtime/day) – up to $59 in consumption charges/year (2022 rates).
