Turn Off The Tap

Good Morning!

When you aren’t using the water, turn it off.  

Many times everyday, we leave the tap running while brushing our teeth, rinsing the dishes or getting a cold drink.  The EPA reports the average bathroom faucet moves about two gallons of water a minute.  You can slow that down by getting a low-flow faucet.

Just turning off the tap while brushing your teeth and shave will save up to eight gallons of water a day.

Other tips: rinse soapy hands for 15 seconds to kill germs, scrape rather than rinse dishes, and soak your veggies before a quick rinse.
