What is the size of the font
Before buying a bath, you must determine its displacement
Having decided to start saving, a person first of all thinks about how many liters are in a regular bath. But such a parameter depends not only on the linear dimensions of the plumbing, but also on the type of materials used. For example, a font made of steel and cast iron, ceteris paribus, will have a different capacity.
First you need to determine the size of the font and the volume of a standard bath in liters, only then it will be possible to find out the approximate water consumption for daily bathing by all family members. Based on specific numbers, it will be easier to find effective ways to solve this problem.
Baby bath capacity
The capacity of the baby bath is 45 liters
The capacity of a standard bath varies from 13 to 45 liters. This indicator depends on the manufacturer of the font. If you bathe your baby more than once a day and in several waters, adding chamomile or calendula to the bath, the volume of water spent increases several times. In such a situation, it is difficult to immediately imagine how many liters are in a standard bathroom that adults use 7 times a week.
The capacity of a regular bath
The internal dimensions of an acrylic bathtub are very different from the external
The volume of a bathtub with a standard size of 160×75 cm is approximately 160-185 liters. In this case, the capacity of a standard bath 170 × 75 cm will be about 200 liters. Unfortunately, the figures are approximate, since it is impossible to calculate the volume of the font using only two parameters (width and length). To accurately determine the volume, you also need to know the height of the tank. True, not all manufacturers indicate this data on their models.
The volume of water in a standard bath of the most common sizes is:
- 165×70 - 160 l;
- 170 × 75 - 250 l;
- 150 × 75 - 155 l;
- 165×75 - 210 l.
The displacement of a standard bath can be found at all manufacturers, but sometimes you have to look for it.
Cast iron products
Cast iron bath standard dimensions
As mentioned earlier, the volume of the tank depends not only on the dimensions of the product, but also on the material. This is not surprising, because the cast-iron font has a greater wall thickness than similar acrylic plumbing.
So that you can, if necessary, calculate the volume of a regular bath that is in your home, it is worth giving the dimensions of the most popular models.
Product width (in meters):
- 0,65;
- 0,7;
- 0,75.
Product length (in meters):
- 1,5;
- 1,7;
- 1,8.
Product height (in meters):
- 0,5;
- 0, 55;
- 0,6.
Cast iron products with other parameters are conditionally considered non-standard. Knowing the three main sizes of the font, you can easily determine the volume of a standard bath in m3 or liters.
To calculate the volume, it is necessary to measure the font and use the formula
The formula for determining displacement: V=L*S*H, where:
L is the length of the product;
S is font width;
H is the tank height.
To determine what volume of a standard bath in cubic meters, calculations must be done in meters, so you will not get confused.
For steel and acrylic models, exactly the same calculation principle applies. Metal fonts are still produced in accordance with GOST, so their sizes are standard, but this is not the case with acrylic products.
To date, manufacturers of polymer products are not limited to the manufacture of fonts of standard shapes:
- Square, rectangular;
- triangular;
- Trapezoidal.
Often you can find models of bizarre configurations that repeat the anatomical structure of the human body, sometimes they produce fonts in the form of sea shells, flowers, droplets, etc. In this case, it will be impossible to independently calculate the displacement of the product.
How many liters does it take to take a bath
We talked about regular bathing. A person just lies down for a few minutes, relaxes.Then he washed off everything superfluous, rinsed in the shower and that's it. In this case, the volume of water will be within 200 liters.
How about taking a relaxing bath? With abundant foam, with various salts, oils and flavors? The beneficial effects are believed to be:
- bath with soda protects the skin from dryness;
- with table salt - has a general strengthening effect on the body;
- with sea salt - helps to reduce fatigue and pain in the joints, improve the overall condition of the skin;
- with pine needle extract - eliminates allergic redness and has a calming effect on the nervous system;
- with sedge - for those who have urolithiasis problems;
- with honey helps to relax and improve sleep;
- with a mixture of powdered milk - makes the skin supple;
- with a glass of fruit vinegar - relieves skin flaking.
Here, one cannot do without the phased adoption of water procedures.
- 150 - 200 liters for relaxation;
- 100 - 200 liters to wash off the dirt;
- 40 - 50 final rinse under the shower.
Thus, the flow rate of the liquid increases significantly.
Standard bath volume
The volume of a standard bath means the containers of conventional rectangular models. Knowing their length and width, you can determine the occupancy. If information from the manufacturer is not indicated, you can navigate by approximate data. Bathtub 150 cm is usually 75 cm wide and has a capacity of 160 liters. If its length is 170 cm, width is 75 cm, then the volume is 250 liters.
Non-standard bathtubs include sedentary, corner models of symmetrical and asymmetric shapes. It is impossible to judge their capacity only by the parameters of length and width. Height information is indispensable.
Unfortunately, not all manufacturers indicate them. Usually it is 50–60 cm. It must be measured without taking into account the legs and bottom width.
The volume of custom-shaped bathtubs
Now you understand the algorithm for calculating the volume of containers of any size, but rectangular. And if the bath is oval or round? It also comes to the aid of knowledge of the basics of mathematics. But it uses the value ? = 3.14.
So if one side of the bowl is 55 centimeters long and the other 65 centimeters with a height of 44 cm, the area will be 3.14 x 55 x 65 \u003d 11,225 cm?.
The resulting value of the bathroom area must be multiplied by its depth 11,225 x 44 \u003d 493,922 cm². We get 493 922 cm?. So our bathtub has a volume of 494 liters. So much water to the brim can accommodate a bath of this configuration. Everything is simple and you don’t have to run around with buckets to find out the volume.
When buying products for the bathroom or for the bathroom, do not hesitate to get detailed information from sales consultants. It is for this purpose that they work with you. Knowing in advance the volume of the bath, you can prevent unnecessary spending on paying for water consumption, and save on your budget.
Cast iron bathtubs
Cast iron bathtubs are a traditional sanitary ware model and are still very popular.
This is due to their qualities.
- Cast iron is a durable material, the bathtub can last a very long time.
- Cast iron is able to warm up, that is, the water in the bathroom retains a pleasant temperature for a long time.
- When water is drawn into cast iron baths, there is no unpleasant noise.
The disadvantage of this type of baths is their heavy weight, which creates certain difficulties during transportation (especially if the apartment is located on one of the upper floors) and installation.
As a rule, cast iron bathtubs are produced in the form of a font, since it is rather problematic to give models from this material a complex silhouette. The answer to the question of how many liters in a cast-iron bath depends on the size of the model.
Standard models are available in lengths (in millimeters):
- 1500;
- 1700;
- 1800;
The width of the models can be:
- 650;
- 700;
- 750.
However, some manufacturers also offer models of non-standard sizes, from the smallest ones 1200 mm long to spacious ones (1900-2000 mm).
So, how many liters are in a standard tub? The smallest standard size model (1500×650) holds 140 liters of water. In large models - 170-195 liters.
However, there are models of high-capacity baths, which include 200 or even 250 liters of water.You can find out exactly what the capacity of the bathtub model you like is by reading its technical characteristics placed in the product passport.
The volume of the cast iron bath in liters
A bathtub is an obligatory detail of a modern apartment or house. In recent decades, manufacturers have widely expanded the range of these products, not only in terms of quality and size, but also the materials used. But, as time proves, the popularity of cast-iron bathtubs among consumers remains at the same height.
A huge plus of a cast-iron bath is its strength and durability.
During the production of this equipment, manufacturers strictly adhere to the requirements of GOST, while at the same time making fashionable design proposals that meet the needs of customers.
Cast iron bathtubs are time-tested, so many consumers prefer this type of sanitary ware made from this particular material.
At the same time, many people, choosing equipment for the bathroom, are guided not by the size of the bath, but by its volume.
Typically, the volume of a cast iron tank is 100-120 liters, such dimensions are considered optimal for middle-class housing. Therefore, with the advent of sanitary equipment from other materials on the consumer market, the production of cast iron bathtubs did not decrease, but increased. There is only one drawback - the weight of one such container reaches 140 kg.
Benefits of a cast iron bath
Dimensions of a cast-iron bath.
- strength and durability,
- warms up well and keeps the required water temperature for a long time,
- When water is collected in a cast-iron container, there is no extra noise.
As a rule, manufacturers produce rectangular cast iron bathtubs, because it is difficult to give such bulky models any other shape. Although in the consumer market you can, if you wish, find these products from the same metal and other forms. The volume in liters of cast-iron bathtubs depends specifically on each product model. Standard models are 150, 160, 170 and 180 cm long, while the width is 650, 700 and 750 cm. But on the construction market, among the offered sanitary products, you can find models of non-standard sizes - from 1200 to 2000 mm in length.
Some buyers choose bathtubs, focusing not on dimensions, but on capacity. That is, they are primarily interested in how much water in liters a particular model has. This has its own logic. After all, today almost in every house or apartment installed water meters. In order to clearly understand how much water will be spent on water procedures, the volume of the container is calculated. And knowing the volume of the tank, each owner will already be ready for certain monthly expenses and, possibly, some savings in water costs.
Calculation of the volume of the cast iron bath
Possible dimensions of a cast-iron bath.
There are two ways to calculate the volume of a cast iron bath:
- Using a bucket, fill the container with water, while counting the number of buckets. The rest can be measured with a liter jar. After that, do a simple arithmetic addition. But this method is too long and is suitable for an already installed cast iron container.
- The second option is faster and less time consuming. In order to calculate the volume of a cast-iron bath, only the dimensions of the container are required.
For example, the length is 150 cm, the width is 65 cm, and the height is 50 cm. As you know, 1 liter of water corresponds to 1 dm & sup3, that is, 1 liter = 10 x 10 x 10. Using these data, you can substitute your indicators. You get the following: 15 x 6.5 x 5 \u003d 487.5 dm & sup3, (l). In this way, knowing the exact dimensions without taking into account the legs and frame, you can calculate the capacity of any tank.
This volume calculation is also suitable for non-standard shapes, for example, a round or oval bath. But in this case, you should know the capacity of a round or oval cast iron container. That is, the area is first calculated according to the already known formula, and then the resulting value should be multiplied by the height or depth of the container.
For example, the length of one semi-axis of a round bath is 50 cm, the length of the second is 60 cm, and the height is 40 cm. The area is found using the following formula: 3.14 x 50 x 60 \u003d 9420. Multiply the resulting number by the height: 9420 x 40 \u003d 376800 see³,. If this number is translated into liters, then the capacity of a round cast-iron bath will be 376.8 liters. Using this formula, you can calculate the volume of any reservoir, even a pool.
baby bath
If we talk about the volume of the children's bathroom - they are also of different sizes. Bathtubs are different, as are the manufacturers.
| Bathtubs, model | Dimensions, cm | Volume, l |
| Prima Baby Dolphin | 84x49x30 | 25 |
| Neonato Surf | 96x54x19 | 25 |
| Hoppop Bato+ | 40x75x28 | 25 |
| Combi 19975 | 52.6x80x26 | 35 |
But, the child is bathed in the bathroom in several steps. Various additives, such as chamomile, can also be used here. This means that the amount of water used also increases. But of course, adults spend much more water on themselves. If we compare all the above examples, we can understand that the main water consumption depends on the person himself.
How do we waste water?
We wash ourselves with water and brush our teeth (and water also runs while brushing our teeth - we do not close the tap). We use it every day for cooking. We wash under the shower. A lot of water is spent on taking water procedures in the bathroom, relaxing for a long time in a supine position.
And if we take into account such an “achievement” of our public utilities as a long wait for cold water to drain and hot water to flow from the tap. And the water is still flowing and how much it will be in the bathroom can only be guessed.
Of course, everyone knows that we use water every day. We don't think about saving. Let's look at the table, an approximate table of water consumption.
| Expense category | Water consumption in liters |
| Washing, brushing teeth | 30 |
| Regular bathing | 135 |
| Cooking, eating | 30 |
| Draining water in the toilet | 60 |
| Washing process | 30 |
| Losses due to plumbing failures | 15 |
| Taking a shower | 70-100 |
The table clearly shows that the daily consumption is large. The bath takes the most. This is the cost per person. The question of the capacity of the bathroom is far from an idle curiosity.
After reading this article, you are armed with the knowledge to choose the right size bathtub. And, knowing the required volume, it is possible to significantly replenish your budget if you use water correctly. And do not forget to eliminate the dripping of water from a closed faucet. Together with water, your money goes into the sewer system, which you could save on buying a bath!

How many liters are in a standard 170 cm and 150 cm bath?
Modern housing allows you to provide complete comfort for living, especially with regard to heat and the possibility of using water. Bathing in the bath has become so firmly established in everyday life that it is no longer conceivable that in the recent past mankind was forced to go to baths. Increasing utility costs make you wonder how much you have to pay for water that is used when bathing in a standard bath.
Bathtubs: types, models
When choosing a bath, you should pay attention to many aspects: the material from which it is made, shape, size, wall thickness
Equally important is the protective coating of the bath, which will allow the equipment to operate for many years.
Bathtubs are made from various materials:
- Cast iron - traditional baths, which are highly durable and strong, the disadvantage of this plumbing equipment is significant weight, especially when filled with water.
- Steel - for many years served as an alternative to cast iron baths. They have a low cost, are lightweight, and are operated up to 25 years. Requires strong fastening due to instability.
- Acrylic - these bathtubs have a beautiful appearance, are distinguished by high technical characteristics, but require careful treatment of the coating (they cannot stand high temperatures, cracks easily form on the surface).
- Baths made of natural stone (marble, quartzite, granite chips) have great advantages over metal products.Bathtubs made of stone are not subject to destruction from rust. The disadvantage of such baths can be called significant weight, fragility and high cost.
Bath dimensions
Corner models of bathtubs are available with dimensions:
- Symmetrical models - from 120 × 120 cm to 180 × 180 cm.
- Asymmetric models - from 120 × 60 cm to 190 × 170 cm.
Traditional baths have dimensions:
- Seated - from 120 × 70/75/80 cm.
- Full-size - from 150 to 180 × 70/75/80 cm.
How many liters of water are included in the bath
When purchasing a bath, you should pay attention to the technical characteristics of sanitary equipment, having studied the passport data. Usually, the passport indicates the main dimensions and volume, which is the maximum allowed to be poured into the bath of the specified model.
If the volume of the product is not specified by the manufacturer, you can calculate it yourself. To do this, you need to make some measurements: the length, width and depth of the bowl. 1 dm3 (1000 cm3, 0.001 m3) contains 1 liter of water.
The calculation is made according to the formula: V (volume) \u003d H x L x S.
- H - depth.
- L is the length.
- S is the width.
A standard size bath measuring 170 x 70 x 50 cm holds about 595 liters of water. The 150 x 65 x 50 tub holds about 487.5 liters of water.
How much water is included in a 150 cm long bath
Bathtubs with a length of 150 cm are most often installed for two reasons: the size of the bathroom does not allow you to install a large bathtub or you want to create visual space in a small room. It should be understood that a bulky and heavy bath will not cope with such a task, even with a suitable value, how many liters are in the bath. In this case, the choice falls on steel or acrylic products. Such baths most often have a variety of shapes.
A length of 150 cm can have a bathtub made of acrylic or steel, made in a corner or seated version. Such baths most often have a standard height.
To find out how many liters of water are in a regular corner or seated bath, you can use the following values:
- A bathtub made of acrylic or steel measuring 150 * 70 holds about 165 liters.
- For a bath measuring 150 * 75, the volume can be 170 liters.
- 230 liters of liquid can be poured into a container measuring 150 * 90.
- If the bath has dimensions of 150 * 95, its volume will be 240 liters.
- The volume of a standard bathtub measuring 150*105 is about 260 liters.
- The bath size 150*150 includes up to 300 liters of water.
In the market of sanitary equipment, bathtubs are presented in a fairly wide range, so the consumer does not experience any particular difficulty in choosing a product of the desired shape, color or size. The question of how many liters is a standard bath also becomes simple. Steel, cast iron or acrylic bathtubs meet even the most demanding needs of future owners. The presence in the passport of complete information about the sanitary product allows you to get all the information directly in the process of purchasing a bath. Most manufacturers indicate in the passport the dimensions of the product, the volume of water that the bowl holds. Such information allows you to find out how many cubes the bath holds and correctly calculate the water consumption.
Standard bath
Question - how much water fits in a regular bath? Due to the different sizes of baths, it is difficult to say for sure. How many baths - so many options. A standard bath holds approximately 200 liters. But the baths are hydromassage, they can accommodate several people. Here baths of this type can hold from 600 to 900 liters! Without performing complex mathematical calculations, a noticeable difference is visible.
For those who are particularly persistent and curious, data on the capacity of fonts of standard sizes:
- bath 150x75 cm holds 160 - 180 liters;
- bathtub 170x70 cm approx. 190 - 220 l.
It is clear that two parameters are not enough to accurately know the volumes of the bath. Height must be included in the calculations. But, as a rule, not all manufacturers are in a hurry to publish sizes.
Of course, you can see the necessary numbers, if you look carefully, from all manufacturers. Within the framework of this article, such a task is not worth it.The main thing to remember is that consumption does not depend on the volume of the bath, but how water procedures are taken. Statistics show that a person spends an average of 250 liters. It happens and exceeds 700 liters.
How to determine the volume of a standard and non-standard bath
For one bath in a full bath, a person spends an average of 200 liters of water. If we are talking only about hygiene procedures, then this is a very irrational use of resources.
After 5 minutes of being in the water, a person still douses the body with a shower. If the bath is filled for relaxing procedures using foam, oils, salts, infusions, then the costs are quite justified. This is the perfect end to a hard week. Knowing the volume of the bath, it is easy to calculate the cost of water per month.
The volume of a standard bath means the containers of conventional rectangular models. Knowing their length and width, you can determine the occupancy. If information from the manufacturer is not indicated, you can navigate by approximate data. Bathtub 150 cm is usually 75 cm wide and has a capacity of 160 liters. If its length is 170 cm, width is 75 cm, then the volume is 250 liters.
Non-standard bathtubs include sedentary, corner models of symmetrical and asymmetric shapes. It is impossible to judge their capacity only by the parameters of length and width. Height information is indispensable.
Unfortunately, not all manufacturers indicate them. Usually it is 50–60 cm. It must be measured without taking into account the legs and bottom width.
Important! Filling depends on the material of manufacture. The walls of the cast-iron model are thicker than acrylic
You need to measure the inner bowl of the bath.
In what cases it is useful to know the volume of the bath
- Boiler installation. When choosing a water heater, it is necessary to take into account its volume so that it is enough for a couple of full-fledged water procedures. If you choose a smaller device, you will have to swim in cool water, and it is not expensive to maintain an excessively large one.
- Septic installation. In the private sector, where there is no centralized sewerage, containers made of plastic or concrete are installed to receive and process wastewater. In this case, you need to know exactly the total volume of incoming effluents so that the septic tank can accept them, and you do not have to call a sewage truck every month.
- Reducing water costs. Relax in warm water after a busy day - what better way to restore peace of mind and regain strength? However, the excess volume of the bowl leads to an overuse of water every time you take a bath. Properly selected plumbing will help you relax comfortably and at the same time save money.

How to calculate the volume of a custom-shaped bath
It is best to find out this parameter in the technical documentation of the manufacturer.
The volume of a triangular bath. As a rule, triangular bathtubs fit into a right angle formed by the walls of the room. To calculate the volume, you need to measure the sides of the bathtub adjacent to the wall and forming a right angle. Multiply the resulting measurements with each other and the height of the product. Divide the result by 2.
(A1+A2)*H/2
The volume of the oval bath. To do this, measure the length and width. Their value is multiplied by each other and by the number "P", equal to 3.14. Then it remains to multiply the result by the height of the bowl.
(A*B*3.14)*H
Kaldewei Classic Duo Oval
The volume of the round bath. You need to measure the diameter of the bowl, divide it in half and multiply by 3.14. The resulting surface area must be multiplied by the height of the product.
((D/2)*3.14)*H
If you are not strong in mathematics, then the installed bath can be measured in a simple way. Record the meter reading and draw a full bowl. If there is no counter, then use a measuring bucket or other container whose volume you know.
Bath Volume Determination
Have you ever thought about the size of the bathtub in your bathroom? This question is not so idle as it might seem at first glance.
Why is such information needed?
Sometimes knowing how much water fits in a bath is necessary. For what you may need the value of this volume:
- Knowing the volume of the bath is simply necessary when choosing a boiler. Very often lately, people install water heaters in bathrooms in order to be able to get hot water in abundance, regardless of utility outages. The size of such a heater directly depends on the volume of the bath. A boiler that is too small will not be able to meet your needs, and too large will not be economically viable.
- Plumbing facilities have now become commonplace in dachas and among the rural population. Many install bathtubs in their homes and cottages. But there is no centralized sewerage in such places yet. Many owners have individual places for draining used water. And they will be filled at a rate directly dependent on the volume of water in the bathroom. Accordingly, the frequency of pumping sewage depends on this.
- And the main reason is that everywhere there is a transition to payment for water according to meter readings. Water, like gas or electricity, is metered and billed based on the amount consumed. When the bill for the used cubic meters arrives, you involuntarily wonder how many cubic meters are in the bathtub. This is especially of concern to state employees and pensioners, for whom every penny counts and an increase in utility payments is simply fatal.
Standard values and indicators
If you asked this question, then how to find out how many cubes of water are in the bath? First of all, it needs to be clarified. A cubic meter of water is a ton, a thousand kilograms, and there are no such baths. Rather, they are extremely rare, as an exclusive custom-made option. The volume of bathtubs standing in apartments is much less. In the vast majority of cases, bathtubs in our bathrooms have a standard size. Since Soviet times, there have been standards for the size of the bathroom, sufficient to install a cast-iron bath. Similar containers were made in only a few versions. For small apartments, bathtubs 150 cm long were used. Apartments with an improved layout were equipped with more spacious equipment, bathtubs 170 cm long were installed there. The width was also different, the standard bath had 3 options: 65, 70 and 75 cm. At the same time, in Soviet times, bath capacity tables were compiled. For the given sizes, they look like this:
How to determine the volume by size
The easiest but time-consuming way to find out the capacity of the model is to fill it up to the desired mark and systematically scoop out water with a two-liter bucket. It's much easier to find out how many liters of water are in a standard tub using math.
Volume formula: V = h × l × s, where
h is the height from the bottom of the bottom to the sides,
l is the length of the inner part,
s is the width.
The formula works with containers without rounding, that is, rectangular, square. The error in the calculations will be insignificant with models that have slightly streamlined corners and bottom.

How much water is used per day
Plumbing makes life much more comfortable, because it eliminates the need to carry water in buckets from a pump or well. But this achievement of civilization weaned people to use water sparingly. Indeed, often water simply flows into the sewer, because a person is too lazy to close the tap or the plumbing fixtures in the house are faulty.
It is believed that one person spends about 250-300 liters per day, and most of this consumption rate falls on taking a bath. If the question arises of saving resources, then the question: how many liters in the bathroom becomes very relevant.
Of course, in order to preserve the family budget, you can generally refuse to take a bath and take only a shower. In this case, water consumption will be reduced.But this decision does not suit everyone, because not everyone wants to exclude such a pleasant procedure as taking a bath.
Therefore, if the task is to reduce water consumption, you need the “right” bath - how many liters of water can the different models hold? Let's try to figure it out.
How much water does one person use
An adult uses about 200 liters of water to take a bath.
Reference: According to statistics, each family member spends about 300 liters of liquid for personal procedures. True, for some, these figures can be overestimated several times.
For a better understanding of the situation, it is worth using an example:
- If a person takes a bath without any additives in the form of decoctions or foam, the water consumption can be 200 liters. Of these, approximately 150 liters are spent on filling the font and about 50 liters on taking a shower after the procedure;
- Suppose a person performs water procedures with the addition of decoctions and oils. At least 150 liters will be spent on filling the tank. It should be noted that therapeutic baths are taken only on a clean body, and this is about 100 liters for taking a shower. Of course, after the procedure, a person needs to rinse, at least 50 liters of water. So it turns out that for one such session it takes about 300 liters!
These examples indicate that not only the capacity of the font affects the significant flow of liquid. The main reason lies in human behavior and habits.
How to reduce water consumption
Many families were able to save significantly by switching to payment according to meter readings. Washing like Europeans is a dubious economy, although many mothers wash small children in this way: they collect water and launch a gang of 2-3 tomboys. So you can safely wash kids up to 5-6 years old: children have fun, mom saves water and time.
There are other ways that are useful to everyone:
- The introduction of lever mechanisms that fix the "favorite" position to maintain the optimum water temperature.
- The shower itself is more profitable than a bath, but it can also be made economical. To do this, stand for 1 minute under the pressure of water and get wet. After turning off the water, lather well, and then stand under the stream again to wash off the foam and dirt.
- Similarly, you can wash your face and brush your teeth. Some dentists are generally of the opinion that it is useful for these procedures to use boiled water, rather than running water. A glass of dentifrice is sufficient.
- Successful options for shower heads allow you to use the necessary pressure and volume of water. They will save about 20% of the liquid for each shower.
- Expensive sensor models of faucets and nozzles also save water, because it will only flow when the sensors are triggered.
Many water-saving appliances are not cheap, because manufacturers embody the idea of \u200b\u200bconserving nature. Average household water consumption is reduced by at least 30%. Quite logical recommendations can be supplemented with one more wise advice: if you want to save on water, repair faulty plumbing!
Approximate calculation
Let's calculate the volume of the container with the following parameters (in centimeters):
- length 155;
- width 70;
- height 55.
Knowing that a liter is one cubic decimeter (1 l \u003d 10x10x10 cm), we translate the dimensions into decimeters. Then we multiply the same parameters (in decimeters).
15.5x7x5.5 = 596.75
We round the resulting value and get the volume of 597 cubic decimeters or liters.
Using this example, you can also make calculations for other types of baths. But when calculating, it must be remembered that the height of the bathtub is taken without taking into account the height of the legs or the frame for the bathtub. When purchasing a new bath and knowing its output data (you can measure it yourself), the calculation of the volume of the product is calculated without difficulty.
