Our dams are barely 50% full, the heat has begun, how long is an acceptable shower? How often do you bathe?

Down here in Tassie we seem pretty well stocked for water as well. My family will likely be reining in our showers once it stops raining and the tanks are no longer covering our needs though. Right now the more we use the less strain it puts on our storm water drains. We might lean on the landlord to upgrade to a solar hot water system at some stage so our showers are closer to genuinely free.
