My city is in the middle of the worst drought in recorded history. My showers are typically under 2 minutes and I have to shower with a bucket to catch otherwise wasted water to use to flush the toilet. I also shut the water down when I am wet enough so I can scrub myself without having unneeded water flowing then start it back up to rinse.
Plus, water is damn expensive!
Who here really has the time to stand, think and waste in the shower?
We have a solar water heater so the heating is next to free.
$55aud/month currently for the water we use.
Were getting one soon as well and adding an electric boiler to work with our solar panels.
Water is only €1.13/1000L here so showering costs about 1 cent a minute water wise.
We have the electric booster and it’s used most days throughout winter but we get pretty cold and cloudy here. We also have solar panels to supplement the power and that helps a lot.
