Tips for Water Conservation
- Fix any leaks: A small leak can waste hundreds of gallons of water over time, so be sure to fix any leaks as soon as you notice them.
- Turn off the tap: Be mindful of how much water you use when brushing your teeth or washing dishes. Turn off the tap when you are not actively using the water.
- Use a bucket: When washing your car or watering your garden, use a bucket instead of a hose. This can save a significant amount of water.
- Use water-efficient appliances: When it’s time to replace appliances like your washing machine or dishwasher, look for models that are designed to be water-efficient.
- Water your lawn wisely: If you have a lawn, be sure to water it during the early morning or late evening when the sun is not as strong. This will help to prevent evaporation and ensure that your lawn gets the most out of the water you use.
- If you think you have a leak: Reach out to our office, we have reports that tap into your meters and can check your usage down to the hour. We are happy to check that out for you.
- See something? Say something: If you notice water where it shouldn't be in the District, let us know, we can look into it. One of your neighbors may be out of town and left a hose running!
