A frequently asked question is how much does a full bath actually cost? This depends on the bathtub and how full it is. The type of heating and the location also influence the costs. In this article, we want to take a closer look at this question and create a rough guideline.
The cost of water for a full bath
Anyone who enjoys taking a bath, whether to support their health or simply to relax, you will have asked yourself this question before. How much does a full bath with foam cost? As already mentioned, this depends on the size of the tub, the level of water and the heating options. But the location also plays a role. A cubic meter in Germany costs on average around 2 euros. So the pure water costs, depending on the size, are between 0.80 and 1.50 euros. The same price can be added on top of that in wastewater costs. Basically, you can calculate costs of around 4 euros for 1,000 liters used.
For comparison: For a shower, about ⅓ to ¼ of the amount of water for a bath runs through the bathroom.
The cost of heating the water
The water temperature for a full bath varies depending on how well you feel. However, it is usually between 35 and 38°C. When heating with gas, around 50 kWh/m³ is needed. The same process with electricity requires around 35 kWh/m³. This means that gas costs around 40 cents and electricity, which is a little more expensive, around 85 cents. If the boiler is ineffective, however, this price can increase.
Summary: This is what a full bath costs
If you heat your water with gas, you will pay around 90 cents for a bath. With electricity, on the other hand, a full bath costs around 1.30 euros. On top of this price, you have to add the cost of the bath additive. Depending on the dosage, brand and manufacturer, this price varies greatly. Depending on the purchase price and frequency of use, you can then add this price yourself and you have all the costs together.
