How Do You Save And Recycle Water At Home?
Water is a precious resource. These water-saving tips can contribute to the conservation of this valuable resource and reduce monthly water bills. Don’t let the water run while you brush your teeth, wash your hands or shave. If you’re shaving, rather fill the sink or basin with the required amount of water. Shower rather than bath. Install low-flow shower heads to reduce your water consumption. Consider installing low-flow or dual flush toilets. Rather than wash dishes by hand, invest in a dishwasher – they use far less water and energy. Consider investing in a high efficiency front-loading washing machine. These machines are environmentally friendly, using water (and energy) more efficiently, thereby reducing household costs. If possible, only run your washing machine and dishwasher when you have a full load. Check to see if you have any leaking or dripping faucets. Make sure that all the faucets are closed and no-one is using any water (i.e. showering, bathing or flushing the toilet)
