America has been abundantly blessed with water. Unless
you live in a desert area or during a drought, you
probably don't think much about conserving water until
the water bill arrives. For the past three years, regions
of the US have been experiencing a drought making people
more aware of their water usage. A few simple practices
can minimize your soaking by your local utility company
and help conserve water.
Tip 1.
Turn it off. When your brushing your teeth, filling glasses, or washing your face or hair, turn off the faucet unless you actually need the water.
Tip 2.
Fill it up. Try to wait until you have a full load of dishes or laundry before doing them.
Tip 3.
Slow it down. If you enjoy a long soak in the shower, try to slow the flow with a water saving shower head, or try placing a washer between the shower head and the water pipe to restrict the water flow.
Tip 4.
Stop the drip. Many gallons of water are wasted every day by leaking faucets and toilets, so replace those worn out faucet washers and toilet flapper balls.
