## How to Calculate Shower Water Usage

Showers account for about 20% of indoor water use and are a major hot water expense.

### Formula

**Water per Shower = Duration (min) * Flow Rate (GPM)**

**Annual Water = Per Shower * Showers/Week * 52**

### Flow Rates

- Standard showerhead: 2.5 GPM
- WaterSense low-flow: 2.0 GPM
- Ultra low-flow: 1.5 GPM
- Rain showerhead: 2.0-2.5 GPM

Ejemplo Resuelto

An 8-minute shower with 2.5 GPM showerhead, 7 showers/week, $0.02/gal heating cost.

  1. Water per shower: 8 * 2.5 = 20 gallons
  2. Weekly: 20 * 7 = 140 gallons
  3. Annual: 140 * 52 = 7,280 gallons
  4. Heating cost: 7,280 * $0.02 = $146/year
