Formula Used

The water consumption is calculated using the following formula:

Water Consumption (liters) = (Number of People × Daily Water Usage per Person × Number of Days) + (Appliance Usage × Number of Days)

Where:

  • Number of People - The size of your household
  • Daily Water Usage per Person - Average water usage per person per day (varies by category)
  • Number of Days - The period for which you want to calculate consumption
  • Appliance Usage - Water usage from household appliances

Worked Example

Let's calculate water consumption for a family of 4 over 30 days:

Given:

  • Number of People = 4
  • Daily Water Usage per Person = 150 liters (average household)
  • Number of Days = 30
  • Appliance Usage = 50 liters/day (washing machine, dishwasher)

Calculation:

(4 × 150 × 30) + (50 × 30) = 18,000 + 1,500 = 19,500 liters

Result: 19,500 liters of water consumed in 30 days

Interpreting Results

The calculator provides several key insights:

  • Total Water Consumption: The overall amount of water used during the specified period.
  • Daily Average: The average water usage per day.
  • Comparison: How your usage compares to DEWA's average household consumption.

Use these results to identify areas where you might reduce water usage, such as fixing leaks, installing water-saving appliances, or adjusting daily habits.
