Water Consumption from Leaving the Tap On

Peter Rukavina

Someone, let’s refer to him as “the other person who lives in this house,” left the tap running in the downstairs sink last night, something I’ve didn’t discover until this morning, meaning it was running on a slow trickle for 12 hours. 800 litres of water was wasted.

Given that this is data that’s logged every few minutes, it occurs to me that I should send myself alerts when aberrations like this show up, before they have a chance to go on for so long.
