One issue with that comparison is that heating a room with 4 people in it costs about the same as for 1 person, whereas a bath/shower for 4 people is 4 times the usage. Although households with 1 or 2 people should still pay less than a household with 4 or more. Should it be based on the number of adults, like the community charge(aka poll tax)?
