Average daily consumption for the house is 0.5 square meters (132 gallons) of water..that is taken from the average monthly bill for 15 square meters of water consumption.
Most of the water goes into shower/laundry use.
That's for 5 persons..3 adults (me,wifey and maid) and 2 kids. So, that is .1 sq meter (26.4 gal) per person per day.
One of the things that help me save water is by using a bucket and water dipper in the restroom for flushing purposes...good exercise too compared to just pulling a lever or pressing a button to flush (disabled the flush button on the toilet and closed the gate valves to all toilets in the house).
