CHECK FAUCETS AND PIPES FOR LEAKS.

Even a small drip can waste 50 or more gallons of water a day. Here’s a handy trick: check your meter two hours before and after no water is running in the house. If the reading on the meter has moved, it’s because there is a leakage.

TURN OFF THE TAPS.

Don’t let your water consumption run out of control. Save 6 litres of water a minute by turning off your tap while you brush your teeth

CATCH RAINWATER

INVEST IN A HIGH-EFFICIENCY WASHING MACHINE

Traditional washing machines consume up to 54 gallons of water per cycle. A high-efficiency washing machine can cut down this consumption to 7 gallons per cycle. High-efficiency washing machines do not only help in saving water but also energy.

CONSIDER PLANTING DROUGHT TOLERANT PLANTS

One of the best ways to save water in your garden is to seed drought-tolerant plants. Bougainvillea, Lithops, Lantana, Verbena, Portulaca, Oleander, Sage, and Poppy are some of the common drought-tolerant plants that homeowners favor. These plants will beautify your garden and home without demanding any water.
