Tiny House Water Autonomy Calculator

How long will the fresh tank actually last? Use your own measured or planned household consumption instead of a generic “off-grid average.”

Fresh-water autonomy

Full fresh-tank weight

Water alone, using approximately 8.34 lb per U.S. gallon.

Grey-water capacity

Measure your real use if you can.

Showering, dishwashing, laundry, toilet type and conservation habits can change daily consumption dramatically. A week of measured use is more useful than a generic lifestyle estimate.

This is a capacity planner, not a potable-water or plumbing design. Tank placement also affects trailer loading and weight distribution. Grey-water generation may be lower than fresh-water consumption depending on toilet type, cooking/drinking use and other losses.
