 Indoor Water-Saving Tips                                                                 

  • Turn the water off when you brush your teeth.
  • Don't use the toilet as a trashcan. Flushing facial tissues, dental floss, and Q-tips is not a good way to dispose of these items. Aside from wasting water, plumbing and sewers aren't necessarily equipped to handle foreign objects.
  • Plug the sink when washing your hands and/or face.
  • Try to limit your showers to 5 minutes or less. Limiting your shower time can save a lot of money, as well as make everyone in your family just a little happier.
  • Take baths that are only 1/2 full. What do you need so much water for, anyway! Scuba Diving?
  • Keep a pitcher of drinking water in the fridge. That way, you won't have to leave the tap running to get a cool, refreshing drink of water!
  • Make sure the dishwasher and washing machine are full before running them. Not only will this save water, but it will help save energy as well!
