Tips for Conserving Water

Every living thing needs water - everyday and due to drought conditions in many parts of the world and human waste is it becoming increasingly in short supply. 

Here are a few tips to help cut down on water waste (and save some cash too). 

1.      Switch out an old showerhead and replace it with a droplet-saving WaterSense-certified head.

2.      Do not leave the water running while brushing your teeth.

3.      Find and repair any leaks or dripping faucets immediately.

4.     Replace old toilets with low-flow models or use water displacements bags to fill up space in the tank.

5.     Run only full loads of laundry or dishes.

6.    Use outdoor water wisely.  Try using rain barrels for collecting water or collect grey water for watering plants and gardens.

These are just a few of the simple things we can do to save our precious water.  I would love to hear your tips and comments.
