- How much water does a bathtub hold -

On average, a bathtub holds between 130 to 190 liters on water. That is around 80 gallons.

If you want to know how much water your bathtub is using, you need to :

– First make sure that nobody else is using water at home (e.g. tap water, washing machine,…)

– Record your meter reading water consumption value

– Fill up your bathtub (have a nice and relaxing bath… with lots of bubbles)

– Record your meter reading water consumption value again

– Substract the values

Note that most probably you will have two water meter readers at home, one for cold water and another one for hot water. You will need to record both meter reading values, before and after filling your bathtub.

If you need more information about what a water meter is or how to read a water meter, have a look to this post or the video below.
