HOW TO REDUCE YOUR MONTHLY WATER BILL
- Replace your current toilet and shower head with energy saving/low flow models which use less than half the water as older standard models.
- Replace your toilet flapper each year as they tend to wear down quickly.
- Repair any leaking faucets and check toilet for leaks.
- Have outside sprinklers on a timer to control amount of water released - also make sure sprinklers are only hitting plants and lawn and not being wasted by soaking the driveway!
- Cut your water usages in half by showering for five minutes instead of taking a bath.
- Turn the water off while shaving and brushing teeth - you'd be surprised to see how much water that saves!
- Put buckets outside to collect rain water to use for watering plants - they love rain water!
- Place ice cubes on hanging plants so they have a chance to soak up all the water and prevent overflow from watering and it won't create over flow spillage from watering too fast.
- When boiling water for cooking use the right size pot and make sure to only include the amount of water required.
