Title: water usuage
Post by: seamus campbell on January 28, 2012, 08:24:37 pm

Gents, roughly how many litres of water do you use per window for instance an average 7 window semi, also how long does it take most to do a average size window on a maintenance clean

Hi Seamus,

You're unlikely to get a definitive reply to this, as experienced WCs all use different amounts of water for various reasons.

A back-pack user I know told me that, with an Aqua-dapter (and the same may possibly apply if using a trigger), he uses around 11 litres per semi with approx 10 windows (4 front, including door - 4 back - 2 on the side).  Water conservation isn't his primary concern (speed is), so you could 'squeeze' more out of it, but you would sacrifice speed.

Then you have to start considering, what's an average semi, what's an average sized window, what flow rate to use.  As Bob said, how long is a piece of string...

Hope this helps.

Paul

Hi birdymiller,

All being well, yes, but not 100% certain right now.
