The Christchurch City Council's new water billing system went live on Sunday night and the first invoices for ratepayers using excess water are due to be sent out over the coming days.
The council introduced an excess water charge in October after making the decision to push ahead with the scheme in 2021.
It is not yet known how many people will get a bill, but the average charge is likely to be $83 and the maximum about $400.
Under the new rules, people will be charged a fixed rate of $1.35 for every 1000 litres they use over the 700-litre limit, which is the equivalent of 100 toilet flushes.

Eleven academics from across New Zealand have formed a group to oppose the airport’s proposal to build a “world-class sustainable airport” in Tarras – about 90km from Queenstown.
The council owns a 75% stake in the airport, with the other 25% owned by the Government.
Three of those academics spoke at Wednesday’s Christchurch City Council meeting and urged the council not to continue supporting the project. The Tarras development was a vanity project that would cripple Christchurch’s economy, they said.
Christchurch Airport project director Michael Singleton said New Zealand was geographically isolated and high-quality air connectivity would always be an important driver of social and economic wellbeing.
“Doing nothing in the face of a well-documented and fast-approaching infrastructure deficit and changing climate jeopardises the long-term ability of communities to maintain or improve their standard of living," he said.

But nice to know that people think they have the right to dictate your life when they don't know you from a bar of soap. I asked for a little help with my kittens one week as had just one time where something happened and I needed a little help. This neighbor decides to message me and tell me if I can't afford to feel them I shouldn't have them. Well first of all it was just once everyone needs a little help from time to time. Where is your empathy and compassion. Second of all I have had all the kittens injections done the last one will be microchiped. And next month both will be spayed. So I have paid for all of this. Next time before you make judgement on someone else. Take a hard look at your self first as I'm guessing you ain't perfect.
Looking to purchase some lego for my grandson - if you have any tucked away (pref a big mixed box) I would be happy to pay up to $50. Pse phone me on 027 285 9527. I can pick up.
