Water savings calculator

How much is that leak costing you? Work out the annual cost of a continuous water leak at your own water and sewer rate, in Canadian dollars.

This section will contain

  • Inputs (§G.1): leak rate (LPM) · hours/day · days/year · water + sewer rate ($/m³).
  • UX: simple first (2–3 inputs → estimate), then an optional Refine step.
  • The result is a data-viz moment, not form output: a §E widget with the money figure large and tabular.
  • Export as image or CSV. The emailed PDF report is the gated artefact; the on-page result stays free and crawlable.

Conservative arithmetic, verified against your own utility bills. Your number comes from your own meters.

This section will contain

  • Constants come from src/data/benchmarks.json. Nothing is hard-coded in a component.

Every constant used here renders with its source inline, in the c11-run-the-numbers footnote style (§G.1).

Where these numbers come from

This section will contain

  • water.combinedRate — 4 $/m³ (water + sewer). [TOM-REVIEW] Municipal rate schedules; the figure used in Quantify's own concept footnotes is 'municipal water + sewer ≈ $4.00/m³'. VERIFY against the current City of Guelph / Region of Waterloo schedule.
