Holy wow. My household of 2 adults and 2 kids (3 & 5yo ... they usually bathe together), we use between 80-100 gallons per day, which includes daily use of a high efficiency clothes washer and a reasonably efficient dishwasher. If I workout in the morning I often shower twice those days, at least during hot weather (because another of our conservation actions is keeping the thermostat at 80F during the day). Here are the water utility rates in the Raleigh area. Notice that non-residential rates are almost as low as Tier 1 but irrigation rates are the same as Tier 3. Residential Water Rates: Tier 1 = 0-4 CCF billed at $2.28 Tier 2 = 5-10 CCF billed at $3.80 Tier 3 = 11+ CCF billed at $5.07 Non-Residential Water Rate: $2.95 Irrigation Rate: $5.07 1 CCF = 748 gallons
