Shower or bath [View all]
Which is more energy and water efficient?
I think that the statistics we hear that showers use less water are based on averages. Each person showers and baths differently, so for you, it may be a surprise.
I take baths. I tolerate showers but enjoy a bath. I took showers for years, thinking that this was the best for the environment. Then I decided to put a plug in the tub before I started the shower to see just how much water I was using. It was a surprise to see that there was more water in the tub than if I would have taken a bath. Of course, I am not one of those people who fill the tub to overflowing for a bath, but I don't feel as if I don't have enough water either.
I wonder if others would also have the same experience if they tried this, or have tried it.
