Findings:

Most water used in Week 1 was in the shower
Most water used in Week 2 was in the laundry
The dishwasher used the least amount of
water in both weeks of data collection
Week 1s water use accumulated to 1,518L
Week 2s usage was 1,331L.

Note: Week 2 involved the water harvesting which
accumulated to a saving of 15.6L. Therefore, if this
was subtracted from the 900L of water used from the
washing machine in Week 2 it would still be the largest
value.

This is a variable as not all my showers were
the same time in Week 2, therefore the same
amount of water was not collected each day.

Therefore, Week 2 was when I saved the most
water during the challenge with a saving of
187L.
