Hello room
I Have a duplex here in lekki which also has a 1bedroom flat in the same block for Rents

There’s a bathtub in every toilet including the 1bedroom flat I rented out

I decided to rent the 1bed room flat to this man. He’s a lawyer and he is married ,what I noticed is that his wife is jobless and she waste too much water
They use the bathtub everyday and that consume about 400litters *(2) =800 litters of water and also uses the washing machine daily
This bothers me because we are using the same prepaid meters and I am the one who pays the basic amount
He pays just 6k every month which this last bills was 34,600 naira for electricity

Before I got the tenant ,I pay just 6k-8k per month for electricity

I use to pump the storex twice in a week but now sometimes 2 times in a day
She washes and use the bath tube everyday , the machine and use other appliances

Please how do I caution this people since they moved in I paid for another prepaid meter and nothing is delivered till now

What's your fu cking concern with the joblessness of the wife.
You own house in Lekki and no one would hear word again.
Do u know why the wife is jobless & has the husband come to complain to u?Do u know if she has a health condition that will make working difficult for her or if she has been trying to secure a job without success?
F ucking landlord priving into the private lives of his tenant!
If the water consumption is the issue take it up with the husband.You have concluded it's the wife's joblessness that is the reason she is using the bath-up excessively.
At worst you give them quit notice and get a tenant that would use the bath-up once a week!!

kushme:



Quite insensitive and wasteful of them.

Abeg, I wan confirm something, how many females are in this insensitive mammy water-wasting family?

immortalcrown:
Na you mess up. You know say you go rent out the apartment, you for give the apartment separate meter and separate tank.

Two options:
(1)
Install a separate meter and a separate overhead tank for the tenant's apartment.

(2)
Give the tenant a quit notice and have no other tenant when the current one leaves.


This commenter does not understand human nature well. Either the tenant and his wife think they pay you too much money and they do those things to hurt you, or the wife is a spoilt slay queen that is addicted to wasting money and resources. Therefore, talking to them cannot help. The man, being a lawyer, may even bring up a silly logic.

kernniejay:

Funny enough. Only one female and about five guys.

happney65:


Thank you. You have said the truth. You don't want any issh,get them a prepaid metre to bear the cost of water pumping not telling them they will wait till your own water finishes. Yet they are not living there for free. Yet they pay huge amount of money but to do your part to make life easier for them,it is difficult for you but when it comes to rent collection you go dey ranju all about

Na Buhari we go dey blame,when in essence we sef worst pass Buhari

Rubbish

kushme:


I said it, even you know say your wife dey waste the water then... Yes, water is free, but do they have to use it until the last drop.

I have the semi arid region experience and I know how difficult it is to get water. A place Where you learn to manage water.

Again, in another location where both single men and women live, you'll see the single females buying water everyday as compared to the single guys. Ask mai-ruwa.

Why is this God given free gift abundant and unequally distributed in different regions? Is it fair? If you ask me, I would say nature/geography has created the perspectives, while some people see it as "use" some see it as "waste".
Water crisis and depletion are real.

teemy:


The Units difference can be used then

happney65:


You mean in the house the tenants pay for, they can't get to pump water for themselves until water finishes in your own tank?

Please make this clear to me as I do not seem to understand.

A single borehole was used and the two tanks were set on the same level of scaffolding platform, the pipes that brings water from the borehole will supply water to both tanks concurrently but the overflowing switch that switches off the machine is inside my tank so that means that once my tank is full, it will switch off automatically, I don't need to be checking when the tank is full. Hope you understand?

Quote me in a dead thread so that I can send you a sketch drawing of how it works.

interkollins:


Could you please send the sketch drawing of how it works for better understanding. Thanks alot
