Some of my relatives, I won't say who, wash in the shower like ducks. For them, pouring water is happiness, so they sit there for a long time. I wonder what you can do there for so long?

Recently, I got an idea into my head. How much does it cost to shower in five minutes? In order not to torment my soul with this question, I counted the water consumption. To do this, I recorded the readings of water meters at the beginning of water procedures.

I washed myself slowly for five minutes. He recorded the time with a stopwatch. This time is enough to completely lather and wash off the water. The water temperature was set at 37 degrees.

By the way, about the same thermometer is sold on the Yandex market. A handy thing, you always know the temperature of the water. Easily mounts to the shower hose.

After the adoption of the water procedures, I recorded the water consumption again by the water meters.

how much does one drain cost into the toilet. So here 18 multiply by 4.2 penny, we get the amount in 75 kopecks. Even the ruble did not come up.

Hot water will be more expensive, because energy is consumed there for heating water. To do this, I calculated on the payment order how much a cubic meter of hot water costs me.

In general, over the past month, a cube of hot water that came to my house cost me 160 rubles. In addition, we will take into account the cost of draining this cube into the sewer, my tariff is 20 rubles. Accordingly to 160 add 20. It turns out 180 rubles, divide by 1000 liters (cube of water) and we get the cost of a liter of hot water supply equal to 18 kopecks.

18 multiply by 21 liter of water and we get the amount in 3 rubles and 78 kopecks. To this amount we add the cost of cold 75 kopecks. As a result of long calculations, the sum of 4 rubles 53 kopecks.

It turned out a little expensive ...

Now you can announce to each family member how much it costs to rinse the bodies in your shower and make organizational conclusions. See you.
