Recently, a neighbor boasted that he "saves" water with magnets. To my objection that he is reaching into my pocket with such an action and I am paying for him, he just waved his hand. Such machinations should not be acceptable in our society, we are not enemies to each other! True?
This moment made me wonder how you can save water without coming up with clever schemes for bypassing metering devices. First of all, I decided to find out how much our actions cost when using water. Then start from this.
I'll start with the toilet and find out how much one flush costs.
To do this, you need to find out how much a thousand liters of water costs. I took this information on the page of the water utility.
In addition, the water from the toilet has leaked somewhere. So, to the price of water, you need to calculate how much it will cost recycling cleaning to return to nature.
One thousand liters of water (one cubic meter), it costs me 41 rubles 81 kopecks.
We count how many liters of water escapes into the toilet
To do this, we go to the toilet and record the readings of the cold water meter. 75 cubic meters and 854 liters
We pour the water into a white friend and wait until his tank is refilled.
The meter stopped at 75 cc. and 860 liters. After carrying out simple mathematical manipulations in my brain, I came to the conclusion that my tank flushes at a time, 6 liters liquids.
As I calculated earlier, THOUSAND LITERS costs me 41 rubles 81 kopecks. Accordingly, I divide the price by a thousand (41.81: 1000 = 0.04181) and I get this figure, approximately equal to 4.2 kopecks per liter.
Then I multiply this figure by 6 (liters) and get the figure in 25 kopecks. A lot or a little is up to you to judge. But the wife, having learned this figure, said that she would try not to pour water just like that, she would save... I went four times a day, and that's already a ruble. There is something to think about. Is not it?
