- Toilet flush: 126 litres (two flushes per day; the rest of the time use grey water)
- Washing hands: 25.2 litres (12 times per day, on average)
- Brushing teeth: 5.6 litres (twice per day)
- Bath: 50 litres (1 half-full bath per week, which includes water for rinsing hair. Washing your hair once a week may be less than you (or your hair type) can tolerate but it’s perfectly hygienic.)
- Sponge bath: 1.8 litres (six times a week. Sponge baths are also hygienic if done properly: it’s how patients are washed in hospital. Make sure you keep your washcloths/sponges scrupulously clean, and use a fresh one every time you wash.)
- Handwashing dishes: 63 litres (3.5 sink-loads per week)
- Dishwasher: 29 litres (one load per week)

TOTAL = 465.6 litres per week OR 66.5 litres per day
