I had to look that one up but I know how much water I use per day in my single person household. Fifty two litres. That is my average daily consumption so far in 2026. So I use about one third as much as the average person.
Back in 2024 I got a smart meter for water. It's not quite the same as a smart energy meter. That comes with an in-home display so can see how much electricity I am using in real time. For water there's no in-home display but I can go to the Anglian Water website and see how much water I use each day.
It has made me very aware of my daily consumption. I have a spreadsheet to help me monitor usage and work out how to cut down.
I have a wet room rather than a bathroom so I don't take baths. Instead I take navy showers.
What's a navy shower? It's water saving technique. I stand under the shower for 20-30 seconds to get wet then I turn off the water. I apply soap and shampoo and then turn the shower on again to rinse myself. The shower is probably running for less than two minutes in total. And I have a water saving shower head as well.
