NSW Water Efficiency Compliance Checklist
What has to be in place before a property meets NSW water efficiency standards (Residential Tenancies Act 2010, effective 23 March 2025) so water usage can be charged to a tenant:
- Toilets: dual-flush, minimum 3-star WELS rating (max 4.5L full flush / 3L half flush)
- Kitchen & bathroom basin taps: max 9L/min flow rate (cold water & single mixer taps)
- Showerheads: max 9L/min flow rate
- No leaking taps or toilets anywhere on the property
Exempt from the flow-rate requirement: bathtub, laundry sink, washing machine, dishwasher and outdoor taps. Separately, the property also needs its own water meter and a lease clause requiring the tenant to pay water usage. That side sits with the agent/landlord, not the plumbing inspection.
