FAQ - SAVE WATER

Can you recommend ways to conserve water?

• Turn off the tap while brushing your teeth and shaving. Use a Dixie cup for your teeth and fill the sink while shaving. You'll save 4 to 10 gallons per day.
• Stop using the toilet as a wastebasket and flushing needlessly. Throw Kleenex into the trash and you'll save 1 to three gallons per flush.
• Limit showers to five minutes. You'll get just as clean and save 3 to 7 gallons per shower.
• Close the tub drain before turning on the bath water. Saves 3 gallons per bath.
• Check and repair leaky fixtures and toilets that flush randomly or run on. This can save you hundreds of dollars per year!
