Water saving tips

How to make the most of your water:

  1. consider a sponge bath
  2. use the water from your sponge bath to wash your underwear and socks
  3. use only as much water as you need to cook (this will also save on the fuel needed to heat the water)
  4. consider flushing the toilet less
  5. keep a bowl of water in the sink to rinse your hands while you're prepping instead of running the tap every time
  6. consider using the water from your dehumidifier to water plants
  7. use the water from washing veggies to water plants or wash dishes
  8. consider a tankless water heater (hot water on demand means you don't have to run so much water)
