In general, the amount of residential water used in kitchen and bathroom increased. On the other hand, the share of garden, toilet, washing decreased throughout the period. Notably, kitchen experienced a substantial expansion, leading the chart at the end of the period.
In 1988, washing led the chart, accounting for the largest percentage (25%), followed by bathroom (22%), garden (20%). Additionally, the value for toilets (18%) was relatively high in comparison with kitchen (15%), which was the lowest proportion.
After 2 decades, even though the rate of the garden significantly dropped to 7%, making up the lowest portion of the total, the figure for the toilets slightly declined by 4%. Similarly, the washing experienced a marginal fall, decreasing by 3% over the period. In contrast, the share of kitchen dramatically rose to 29%, constituting the dominant figure, whereas the value for bathroom grew to 28%.
