Top Tips:

• Turn off the tap when brushing your teeth. Keeping it running can waste around 8 litres per minute
• Have a shower instead of a bath, it uses a third of the water
• Install a water meter which makes you more aware of how much you are using.
• Only fill the kettle to the amount you need, saving both water and electricity.
• Choose water efficient sanitary ware - look for loos with a short and a long flush.
• Retro fit a dual flush device like the ecoBETA to your existing cistern
• Don't use your washing machine until you have a full load.
• Fit a flow deduction device like Tapmagic to your taps.
• Fit a Water Saving Showerhead
• Of course, don't forget to buy a water butt to collect rainwater from your roof for use in the garden.
