Home › Forums › Costa Rica Living Forum › ASADA Water Billing
Hello,
Can anyone clarify how to calculate an ASADA water bill? I have found the schedule of rates on the ARESEP website, however I am confused by the minimum and maximum tariffs. Does one pay the rate per cubic meter of water used in addition to a minimum or maximum tariff? Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
Paula
The Asada La Palma in Puriscal charges a monthly fee of 2.690 colones, plus whatever you consume at the rate of 170 colones per m3 of water.
The basic fee (tarifa basica) does not include any water and depends on the number of households connected. The fee per cubic meter depends on several things.
– if water is provided by gravity or if the ASADA has to use pumps (electric bill) from the spring to the storage tanks.
– if the user is residential or commercial
– the more water you use the higher the fee per cubic meter ( just like ICE with their kilowatt hours)
