Greenredeem are trying to scare me
Greenredeem is linked to Thames Water and they monitor how much water is being used compared with prevous weeks and also compared with the average for the same size household.
Logged in and it says that last week I used 1255 litres of water which is 8 car washes and 16 baths more than average. I normally use 1193 litres which is still above the average for a 2 person household.
I don't believe these figures and think Greenredeem are trying to scare me into thinking I need to save even more water. But I can't see where I can save much more. This is what I use most weeks.
Washing machine once a week
Shower once a week, rest of the time I just wash. During the hotter weather shower daily.
washing up once a day, one bowl of water.
Don't water the garden, don't have a car to wash.
toilet gets flushed no more than half a dozen times a dau
Only put enough water in the kettle for the 2 cups of tea each time
Brush my teeth without water - one of the things they say saves 100s of litres everytime
