Tip of the Month

Reduce water use in your bathroom

February 19, 2008
  • Repair toilet leaks.

    • To test your toilet, put a few drops of food coloring in the toilet tank. If it seeps into the toilet bowl you have a leak.

  • Fix leaky faucets. A tap that drips one drop per second wastes about 10,000 litres per year.

  • Install water saving aerators on your water faucets and low flow shower heads in the shower.

  • Avoid running the tap while brushing your teeth, shaving, washing up and cleaning.
