Fix dripping faucets. A drop per second waste 192 gallons per month! First, try tightening all fitting a quarter to half a turn. No luck? The gaskets or O-rings might be worn out. To check, the faucet will need to be taken apart, so for best results, consult a plumber.- Check for toilet leaks. Open the tank and drop in enough food coloring so the water tins. If color slowly appears in the bowl, there’s a leak. Flush dye, then replace worn-out parts or get a pro to do the dirty work for you.
- Add aerators. Most kitchen and bath faucets can be fitted with aerators, which screws into the faucets opening and mixes air into the water stream for less water output while still maintaining adequate and steady pressure.
- Water your yard wisely. Be sure sprinklers are placed so you’re not also watering pavement. It’s best to water early in the morning to minimize evaporation and allow plants to absorb moisture before the day heat up.
