The rotation around the metro hand is 7.5 liters of water. Add the number of meters of rotation Full hand every minute and multiple by 7.5 to determine the number of gallons of water consumed every minute, every hour, every day and every week. If you know how much water is used, you will know if you are paying the bills right or wrong. If your bills exceed the estimate, you may have leaks.
