Save Water: Top 5 Ways To Save Water
 |
Turn it off!!! Turn off water when brushing teeth. |
 |
Take shorter showers. You’ll save water and the energy used to heat it!. Extra payoff: And by taking shorter showers, you'll conserve 350 pounds of CO2 and keep about $100 in your pocket each year. |
 |
Install a low flow shower head, one that puts out less than 3 gallons per minute. They still have great pressure but conserve gallons of water from each shower. |
 |
Install an efficient toilet. New toilets use around 1.6 gallons per flush. Find out if you qualify for a voucher from the City of Dallas that helps homeowners and apartment managers/owners purchase water-saving low-flow toilets. |
 |
Wait until it's full. Run the washing machine and dishwasher only when they’re full… and don't prerinse dishes (a waste of time, water, and energy). Extra payoff: By skipping prerinse, you'll save 200 pounds of carbon dioxide from being released and $40 a year. |
