CCF stands for Centum Cubic Feet, a unit commonly used by water utilities to measure water consumption. Here’s what it means and how it works:

Definition & Conversion

  • CCF = 100 cubic feet of water
  • 1 CCF = 748 gallons of water

Why It’s Used

  • Water bills often use CCF because it’s a standardized unit that simplifies large-volume measurements.
  • It’s also used by natural gas utilities for similar reasons.
