• Fix leaky faucets, showerheads, and pipes throughout your home. A leak of one drop of water per second wastes more than 3,000 gallons of water per year.

• Don’t let the water run while brushing your teeth or shaving.

• Replace standard showerheads and faucets with low flow showerheads and faucet aerators. You should be able to read 2.0 gallons per minute or less printed on the side of your shower fixture and faucet aerator. If the numbers are higher, replace them with low flow fixtures from the Self Help store or the local hardware store.

• Make sure your toilet flapper doesn’t stick open after flushing. Drop your used facial tissue and dead bugs in the trash instead of flushing them down the toilet.

• Run full loads in the dishwasher and washing machine.

• When doing laundry, if you can’t make a full load, match the water level to the size of the load.

• When washing dishes by hand, don’t let the water run in between rinses. Fill one sink with wash water and the other with rinse water. Soak your pots and pans instead of letting the water run while you scrape them clean.

• Don’t use running water to thaw food.

• Sweep patios and driveways with a broom? Don’t use a hose to flush debris off the cement.

• Don’t forget to check outdoor faucets, pipes, and hoses for leaks.
