Outside water taps, drinking bowls and field troughs

If you have an unmetered outside tap, drinking bowl or a field trough you'll get charged differently from a normal property.

For field troughs and drinking bowls, charges apply to unmetered connections and apply per trough. The charge will apply for each trough/drinking bowl and varies depending on the type of property.

Charges for outside taps apply to all external taps at non-household properties (including farms) where the property has no water meter and/or no RV. These charges also vary depending on the type of property.

A reduced charge for crofts and registered small holdings will be applied following the provision of confirmation of registered croft status under croft legislation, or by providing your Small Holding Registration Number, granted by the Scottish Government.
