I took my first shower in a regular house (in over a year) last month.

In our Mh if you cut the water off, in the shower, you will either scald yourself or freeze yourself when you cut it back on.
The same in the showers in home.

There are four of us and one month we were hit with a bill for 19000 gallons or two full swimming pools or near it.
Comparing note here with with what others say, no way was it right.
We do a lot, of laundry, and use the hot tubs some.
A hundred gallons of fresh water, in the coach, I seem to remember lasted about two days and part, of another, one with at least one shower each per day plus laundry and cooking. We try not to limit time in the shower.
