|
| We turn off the water when we brush our teeth and/or shave. | ||
| We have lowflow showerheads and take shorter showers. | ||
| We have Ultra Low Flush Toilets that only use 1.6 gallons or less per flush. | ||
| Our faucets don’t drip. | ||
| We use an automatic shutoff nozzle on our hose to wash our car. | ||
| We don’t use a hose to clean our deck or driveway…we use a broom. | ||
| We only use the dishwasher when it’s full. | ||
| We only do laundry when there’s enough to fill the washing machine. | ||
| When we water our landscaping, we never let the water runoff. | ||
| We have droughtresistant, native landscaping and hardscape. | ||
| We don’t water outdoors between 8 a.m. and 6 p.m. | ||
| We replaced our lawn with something more water wise (i.e. artificial turf). | ||
| We check our toilets for leaks every month. | ||
| We know how to check our water meter to see if we have a leak. |
Excellent job! You’re a great water watcher!
Thank you for helping everyone in your house become water wise!
