Yeah, that's about 7.4 gallons an hour.. Sure seems high.

But, the fedgov seems to think it's average..

Per capita water use. Water questions and answers; USGS Water Science School

"Estimates vary, but each person uses about 80-100 gallons of water per day.

Are you surprised that the largest use of household water is to flush the toilet, and after that, to take showers and baths?"
