National average: 210 litres/ person/ day
United Nations recommendation: 50-100 litres/person /day
How to estimate water usage/ person/ day
1. Get the volume of water (m3) used from your month water bill
2. Multiply the volume (m3) by 1,000 to convert the volume into litre
3. Divide the volume (litre) by 30 days, then further divide by the number of people in your house to obtain water usage/ person/ day
Eg.
1. My house uses about 13m3 per month
2. Volume in litre = 13 x 1,000 = 13,000 litres
3. 4 people in my house. Water usage/ person/ day = (13,000/ 30 )/4 = 108 litre/ person/ day
