Leaky Faucet and Running Toilet Water Waste Calculator

Water Waste Calculator

(Leaky faucets, running toilets)

Suggested value: 20 drips per minute (common leak rate)
Suggested value: 1 faucet
Suggested value: 1 gallon per minute (common running toilet rate)
Suggested value: 0 toilets
Suggested value: 30 days (one month)
Input your actual cost or use our average cost of $0.010 (1 penny) per gallon

Note: The logarithmic scale is used in the chart to better visualize data that spans large ranges, such as water waste and cost. It helps in comparing values that might otherwise be too disparate to fit well on a linear scale.

How to Use the Water Waste Calculator

Not sure how much water your household is wasting? Use this quick tool to find out!

Step-by-Step:

  1. Enter the number of leaks you have (faucets, toilets, etc.).
  2. Estimate drips per minute for each leak. Not sure? A slow drip is about 10–30 drips per minute.
  3. Click “Calculate” to see how much water you're losing daily, monthly, and yearly.
  4. Review the results to find out how much water—and money—you could save by fixing those leaks.

Why It Matters

  • A single leaking faucet can waste hundreds of gallons each year.
  • Fixing leaks helps conserve water and lower your utility bill.
