- Check toilet for leaks: Use food coloring to detect leaks wasting over 100 gallons/day.
- Don't use toilet as trash: Every item flushed wastes 5-7 gallons of water.
- Place a plastic bottle in toilet tank: Filled with sand, it can save 5+ gallons/day without affecting efficiency.
- Shorten showers: Limit to essential washing to save 5-10 gallons/minute.
- Take baths: Partially filled tubs use less water than most showers.
- Turn off water while brushing teeth: Wet brush, fill a glass for rinsing.
- Turn off water while shaving: Fill sink for razor rinsing.
- Check faucets for leaks: Even small drips can waste 50+ gallons/day.
- Use dishwasher and washing machine for full loads: Saves 30-35 gallons per cycle.
- Don't let faucet run while cleaning vegetables: Use a bowl or sink of water.
- Keep drinking water in the fridge: Avoid running tap to cool it.
- If hand washing dishes, don't leave water running: Fill a sink for rinsing.
- Water lawn only when needed: Step on grass – if it springs back, it doesn't need water.
- Use a broom, not a hose, for cleaning: Saves hundreds of gallons.
- Check for leaks in pipes and couplings: Even outside leaks can be highly wasteful.
Most importantly: always lock up your water properly when not in use.
