Save a dollar, travel more…
Are you on a water meter? Here are a few tips on saving water and the environment that will put a few dollars back in your wallet. Even if you are not on a meter, water is something we should all be trying to limit our use of.
While waiting for the water to heat up use the cold water for filling the dog’s water bowl, watering a plant, or filling a water pitcher.
Water your grass and plants early in the morning so the water does not evaporate. You can probably water less this way also.
Check your automatic sprinklers. Do you have water running down the gutter? Try watering a few minutes less so you are not wasting water.
Make sure your sprinklers are in good working order and not leaking water down the drain.
Install low flow aerators on your showers and faucets. Inexpensive and simple to install, low-flow shower heads and faucet aerators can reduce water consumption as much as 50%, and reduce your energy cost of heating the water by as much as 50%.
Use a quick or short cycle on your dishwasher and clothes washer. Everything comes out just as clean and you use less water and energy.
Turn off the faucet while brushing your teeth.
How about not running water into the pool all night, hate to see that water bill
