TIPS FOR CONSERVING WATER
Some ideas and suggestions for conserving your water usage

Check all faucets, pipes and toilets regularly for leaks or drips. Make any repairs as
promptly as possible. As much as 15 gallons of water a day can be lost with a slow drip.
Consider a low flow toilet. This could save a couple of gallons per flush.
Test your toilet for leaks by removing the toilet tank cover and adding food colouring
into the tank. After 20 minutes check for coloured water in the toilet bowl. If you see
colour you may have a leak and should have your toilet checked. Also remember to
check the flapper periodically to ensure a tight fit.
Don't use the toilet as a wastebasket, extra flushing can waste gallons of water.
If you have an irrigation system, make sure none of the valves are leaking and consider a
timer
If you use a sprinkler, is it on a timer?
Take care to not overwater plants and lawns. Consider watering in the morning or late
evening when evaporation is at a minimum.
Wash only full loads in the dishwasher and in the washing machine
Avoid running the water continuously while shaving, brushing teeth, peeling vegetables
or while washing dishes.
Have a fish tank....try reusing the water to water plants. This will fertilize the plants as
well as watering them
Instead of running faucets for a lengthy time to cool water, try keeping drinking water in
the refrigerator.
Install a water saving shower head. Older shower heads can use twice as many gallons
per minute.
Shorten shower times or try turning the water off while soaping and scrubbing.
Avoid cleaning paved areas and decks with the hose, try using a broom instead.
When washing vehicles use a bucket for washing and a hose only for rinsing..
Use a cistern or rainbarrel to collect rain water for watering plants and spot watering the
lawn.
If you have a swimming pool, try keeping it covered. Covering a swimming pool reduces
evaporation and needs less top-ups.
Recycle pool water. Use it for watering lawns, plants, trees and shrubs.
If using a sprinkler, ensure it is away from sidewalks and curbs to maximize watering
efforts.
