When it comes to keeping your family hydrated, there are
three big things that matter: cost, quality, and convenience.
Many households rely on supermarket bottled water or bulk delivery bottles
without realising how quickly the cost adds up, or how unreliable those options
can be.
Here’s how Waterchoice compares.
1. Waterchoice – Pure, Unlimited Water for $15 per Week
For just $15 per week, Waterchoice systems provide:
- Up
to 300 litres of fresh filtered water per day
(That’s far more than any family could use - no running out, ever!)
- A
fixed weekly price with no surprises
- No
storing, refilling, or waiting for deliveries
- No
plastic bottle waste
- Unlimited
chilled water with optional child-safe taps
Cost for an average family of 4
Each person drinks around 2 litres per day, so a
family of four uses:
- 8
litres per day
- 56
litres per week
Waterchoice cost: $15 per week for unlimited water
Cost per litre:
$15 ÷ 56L = $0.27 per litre (and that’s the maximum—you’re not capped. The more you use, the cheaper it gets.)
And unlike store water, you’re paying for purity,
convenience, and supply you never run out of.
2. Supermarket Bottled Water
24 × 350ml for $10* = 8.4 litres total
A family drinking 8L per day would need almost 7 packs
per week, costing:
- $10
× 7 = $70 per week
- That’s
only 58.8 litres, roughly what the same family drinks weekly
The real cost per litre:
$10 ÷ 8.4L = $1.19 per litre
The drawbacks:
- Very
expensive
- Huge
amount of plastic waste
- Limited
quantity - you must constantly buy and carry more
- No
chilled option unless you refrigerate dozens of bottles
Compared to Waterchoice, supermarket water costs over 4
times more for the same consumption.

3. Bulk Water Delivery Companies
Most bulk bottle companies charge:
- $15.95
per month to rent the cooler
- $15.70
per each 15L bottle
A family drinking 56 litres per week needs just under four
15L bottles weekly, costing:
- 4
× $15.70 = $62.80 per week on water alone
- Cooler
rental:
$15.95 per month = approx. $3.68 per week
- Total
weekly cost ˜ $66.48
Cost per litre:
$66.48 ÷ 56L ˜ $1.18 per litre
The drawbacks:
- Fixed
water amounts, so you can easily run out
- You
must store large heavy bottles
- Delivery
delays are common, leaving families without water
- Lots
of plastic
- Water
sits in plastic until use
Bulk delivery ends up costing more than 4 times the cost
of Waterchoice, with far less reliability, and certainly not the same
quality.
