How It Works
The Water Usage Calculator uses a straightforward formula to estimate your water consumption. Here’s the breakdown:
Daily Water Usage = (Shower Usage + Toilet Usage + Dishwashing Usage + Laundry Usage + Other Usage)
- Shower Usage: Number of showers × shower duration × 10 liters per minute.
- Toilet Usage: Number of flushes × liters per flush (based on toilet type).
- Dishwashing Usage: Number of sessions × liters per session (handwashing or dishwasher).
- Laundry Usage: Number of loads per week ÷ 7 days × liters per load.
- Other Usage: Any additional water usage you input manually.
Once you input your daily habits, the calculator does the math for you, giving you a clear picture of your water consumption over time.
