Every Drop Counts: Water Saving Tips At Home
Did you know that we use about 77 gallons of water each day per person?  A few simple changes can make a big difference. 

• Repair leaks – Dripping faucets and leaky toilets can waste over 2,000 gallons of water each year. 
• Replace old showerheads – Low flow showerheads can save 3 gallons per minute. 
• Run full loads – Running laundry machines and dishwashers when full instead of multiple smaller loads. 
• Consider water efficiency – When purchasing new laundry machines or dishwashers, consider water efficient models.  They use up to 40% less water per year. 
• Turn off water – When brushing your teeth or shaving, turn the water off in the sink.
