How To Conserve Water Around Your House

  • Turning off the faucet when you brush your teeth can save 70 gallons or more per month.
  • Taking shorter showers. Reducing your shower time by just one minute can save as much as 75 gallons per month. 
  • Fixing a leaky faucet with even a little drip – five drops per minute – can save more than 200 gallons of water per year. 
  • Replacing your toilet or washing machine with high-efficiency models. Rebates may be available.
  • Installing water-saving faucet aerators, high-efficiency shower heads, shutoff hose nozzles, and leak detection dye tablets.

We have conservation kits available at no charge to our customers.
