Water Conservation

Turn off the water while brushing your teeth. You conserve up to 9 gallons of water per brushing.

Toilets use 5-7 gallons with each flush. Install a displacement device to conserve water. This is as simple as placing a plastic bottle filled with water in the tank. This will conserve about 1-2 gallons per flush.

Check for leaks and fix them immediately. A small leak can waste a lot of water and cost you money.

Wash only full loads of dishes and clothes.

Take a short shower instead of a bath. This save about 15 gallons.

Keep a pitcher of water in the frigerator instead of running the tap until water is cold. This simple step saves about two gallons per glass.
