"day len, re 20 liters, that should read flush 20 litres and evaporate
30 for cooling.
Total of 50 liters and hour. Not good at all.

g'day rob,

dual flushes surprisingly don't save that much water, the best saving
would be if people stopped flushing urine at all, only flush solids.

the low flow shower heads much the same, people need to work out they
they don't need as many showers as many tend to take.

yes save buckets of grye water to flush toilets will double use water
before it exits the home.

and yes for sure why not pipe that class 2 water back for use in
toilets and under control for some garden use.

we have a new estate up here that has recycled water piped to it but
it is only for the use of watering gardens and lawns, tat to me is
still a waste, why can't those homes be connected for using it in
their toilets?

a lot of the stuff that bunnings sells is goverened by the gov's feel
good measures they are the industry standard measures that draw
rebates, at the end of the day they do little to encourage responsible
water use.

we still need to remember that money spent on infrastructure is
investment fro the future, so why aren't all multiple use and public
toilets retro fitted with those waterless full flush urinals? why
aren't all new toilets in that catagory required to fit them first up?

why aren't water tanks compulsory for all new homes built?

and not to foget many homes are fitted with evaporative air coolers
these units commonly use 20 litres of drinking water for every hour of
operation.
