Conserve Water and Save Money (And The Planet)


When it comes to conserving water, small adjustments around the home can have a big impact. Saving water is easy when you think about it. Here are some tips to help you conserve water.

Bathroom: Accounts for about 75 percent of the water used inside the home.
Check regularly for any leaks in your toilet, faucets and water hose bibs and fix them. 
Water saved: up to 200 gallons per day. Install a low-flow showerhead. Take short showers and save the baths for special occasions. Water saved: 2 to 5 gallons per minute.
Replace older, larger-use toilets with the newer higher efficiency toilets. Water saved: .5 to 5 gallons per flush.

Kitchen: About 8 percent of in-home water use takes place in the kitchen.
Don’t rinse dishes before loading dishwasher and wash only full loads in the dishwasher. Water saved: 20 gallons per load. When buying a new dishwasher, consider purchasing a water-saving model. (New models use up to 25 percent less water than older ones.) Water saved: 3 gallons per load.

Around the house: Wash only full loads in the clothes washer. Washing small loads uses over twice as much water per pound of laundry. Insulate hot water pipes where possible to avoid long delays (and wasted water) while waiting for the water to “run hot.”
