Water Conservation Tips

Please do your part to conserve water by following these simple tips:

      Use paper plates and plastic utensils

      Buy bottled water for drinking and cooking

      When washing clothing put in a full load, use the minimum amount of water required and use the shortest cycle

      Run the dishwasher only when it is full of dishes.  If you do not have a dish washer use two basins (one for wash and one to rinse)

      Don’t allow water to continuously run while brushing teeth, shaving, or showering

      Take shorter showers

      Take a “military shower” or “a sink bath”

      Fix water or faucet leaks

      Don’t wash your cars, boats, or RV’s

      Don’t water the lawn

      Place a brick in the tank of your toilet in order to raise the water level in the tank allowing the floater to shut off quicker

      Flush toilets less frequently

      Reuse faucet water for mopping, cleaning, flushing the toilet or watering plants

      Defrost frozen food in the refrigerator or in the microwave instead of using water

      Cover your swimming pool to avoid water loss through evaporation
