Stop those leaks!!!
- Check your indoor water using appliances and
devices for leaks. Many silent leaks allow water and your money to go
down the drain. Studies have shown homes can waste water more than 10%
due to leaking, which costs you and the environment.
- Replace your toilet if it is old. It is the
largest water user in your home. Install a 1.6-gallon flush toilet to
conserve water.
- Check leaks in your irrigation system. Inspect
your sprinklers and drip sprayers regularly during the daytime since
optimal time to water is in the nighttime hours.
- Replace your clothes washer. Energy rated
washers that also have a water factor at or lower than 9.5, use 35-50%
less water.
- Water only what your plants need. Make sure
your irrigation system has a rain shutoff device.
