How do pensioners manage to spend 5 cubic meters of water and 50 kWh of electricity per month?

Hello everyone! Recently I read an article about two pensioners who claim that they spend no more than 5 cubic meters per month water (they live in the city of Yeisk, where water is very, very expensive) and only 50 kW * hours electricity.

Despite the fact that many commentators support the author, I believe that these numbers are nothing more than the author's fantasy. And in this article, I will take the rascals to clean water on the shelves.

Let's start with my favorite - electricity. Let's take a super-economical refrigerator of energy efficiency class A +, which even a pensioner can buy today and not be left without pants. In the presence of an inverter compressor, it consumes about 1 kW of electricity, but it works at least 3 hours a day.

These figures were provided to me by employees of the POZIS plant in Tatarstan, where they make some of the most economical refrigerators, and I trust these data. It turns out that in 30 days the cold weather "eats" at least 90 kW * h of electricity.

It turns out that the authors are already cunning: even a refrigerator, not counting lighting, phone and laptop chargers, eats more than they say.

The second - 5 cubic meters of water per month for two. Are you guys serious?

We turn to SNiP 2.04.01-85 and see the consumption rates. We are interested in the penultimate point: after all, the apartment has a hot water supply, a washbasin and a shower (the authors do not use the bathroom). It turns out 230 liters per day per person.

And since 5 cubic meters contains 5,000 liters of water, it is obvious that the guys will spend this rate for two in 10-12 days. Even if they save water and use it to flush the toilet, 5 cubes is too small a figure.

So that liars brought to clean water. Check facts in Zen and only believe what the foreman writes. Online!
