If your toilet was purchased before 1992 it uses about 6 gallons of water, if since then it uses about a gallon and a half per flush. Some say the average person flushes 5 times a day, so that would be 30 gallons a day or 900 gallons a month for older toilets and 7.5 gallons a day or 25 gallons a month for newer ones. Divide these numbers by the gallons your water bill says you use in a month to find the percentage. There is to much variation to figure out how much your entire family uses -- clothes washer, dish washer, watering lawns, etc.

An RV toilet is designed to be mounted over a holding tank.

Unless modified, an RV toilet would not be able to get the solid waste to your home septic system. A home toilet uses the force of the water to move the solid waste to your septic tank. Look for a low flush toilet or a composting toilet instead.
