Ecotips for saving water in the house

Some ideas to help us save water - and our rivers and streams - during the current drought!
  • Install an efficient shower head (you can get one when you sign up for Start Saving Water - Save Our Streams | Waste Less Water | Save Money)  and have a shower instead of a bath.
  • Turning off the tap for 2 minutes while brushing your teeth can save 12 liters of water.
  • Only run your dishwasher and washing machine when you have full loads. If you can run them outside peak power usage times you will also help us reduce non-reneweable energy use - between 11am and 3pm or overnight instead.
