Water Conservation Tips
Why It Matters
Water is one of our most valuable resources. By using water wisely, we can lower utility costs, protect the environment, and ensure a reliable water supply for future generations.
Everyday Conservation Tips
-
Fix Leaks Quickly – A dripping faucet can waste thousands of gallons each year.
-
Use Water-Efficient Fixtures – Install low-flow showerheads, faucets, and toilets.
-
Smart Lawn Care – Water early in the morning or late evening to reduce evaporation.
-
Limit Lawn Watering – Most lawns only need about 1 inch of water per week.
-
Choose Native Plants – They require less water and maintenance.
-
Turn Off the Tap – While brushing teeth or washing dishes.
Outdoor Guidelines
-
Adjust sprinklers so water lands on lawns and plants—not sidewalks or driveways.
-
Sweep driveways and sidewalks instead of hosing them down.
-
Use mulch to help soil retain moisture.
