The data article is related to the generation of raw wastewater from 15 single-family dwellings. Such a dataset is rare. They are complicated to set up due to the technical difficulty of deriving a representative sample of this kind of pollution, composed of suspended solids potentially very coarse in size, compounded by the administrative difficulty of performing these measurements on private property. The data were obtained by means of two distinct and complementary monitoring campaigns: i) continuous measurement of the volumes discharged by three of the 15 dwellings during more than one year, and ii) characterization, in terms of both quality and quantity, of more than 300 raw wastewater samples discharged over 24 consecutive hours by all 15 houses during weekly periods of seven consecutive days, which deliberately included weekend days. Their acquisition methodologies are described. The validation's methodologies, also described, include a R script. The data analysis can be used for i) designing and operating onsite and small wastewater treatment systems and ii) characterising the strictly domestic pollution. Therefore, this data article is associated with the manuscript “Quantification and qualification of the urban domestic pollution discharged per households and per resident”.The hydraulic values obtained with continuous measurement are available in two units: in l.s⁻¹ as primary data and in l.h⁻¹ as secondary data. They can be reused at any time step. These elements could be incorporated into future research or innovations related to single-family dwellings. In a general point of view, such data could be introduced in databases used for Life Cycle Assessment. These values can also be used in sanitation (collection, design and operation) and be useful to better specify the potential for the recovery of domestic wastewater.
