SAVE ON WATER BILLS
- Replace or repair loose seals on your toilet and taps promptly. Ten drips per minute wastes about 3,000 litres of water a year.
Water
- Remember to turn off all taps after use.
- Use a container for washing, brushing your teeth or shaving
than rinsing in running water. You can save up to fiver litres of water each time. - Don't wash clothes or vegetables under running taps.
- Do not use an excessive quantity of detergent when washing clothes or household utilities as more water is needed for rinsing them off.
- Water your plants
only when necessary. - Change fish tank water only when necessary. Use a better filtering system to maintain water quality.
- Water can be used again. Save your bath slops to wash the floor.
- Be economical with your washing machine and dishwasher. Save for a bigger wash and cut down the rinse cycle.
- Teach your children that water is not for games.
- Install low-flow tap.
- Install flow restrictors, self-closing taps, sensors, etc.
- By taking a shower instead of a bath, you use only one fifth of the water.
Toilet
- Do not flush unnecessarily. Eleven litres of water are used every time you flush the toilet. A large family may waste up to 100 litres every day.
- Adjust the flushing water of your cistern to a minimum required level.
- Use waste water instead of drinking water to flush the toilet if there is no supply of sea water for flushing.
- Install two-flow flushing system to your cistern to reduce water use.
