Best Practices to Reduce Water Usage

In today’s world, many of us strive for an eco-friendly lifestyle to protect our planet by conserving natural resources. Did you know that according to the United States Environmental Protection Agency, the average family uses more than 300 gallons of water per day? You don’t have to be a part of this statistic – keep reading to discover different methods to save H2O at home.

Turn Water Off When Not in Use

Although it is an obvious way to save H2O, it is the most effective. You decrease your H2O usage significantly every minute it is turned off. While you are brushing your teeth, turn the water off. Instead of running it for five minutes, you cut down two or three minutes, saving up to ten gallons of water. You can use the same tactic when showering or washing the dishes.

Install Low-Flow Equipment

Controlling the water flow enables you to prevent it from going to waste. For example, a low-flow toilet is designed to reduce the volume of water flush excreta down the drains. Therefore, installing a low-flow shower head and toilet will help save gallons of H2O. And don’t worry; this equipment can be affordable and will save you money in the long run.

Don’t Overwater Outside

Within a household, 30% of the water usage goes towards the landscape. You can merely reduce the percentage by installing rain sensors on irrigation systems so that you are not overwatering your lawn. Additionally, placing a rain barrel by your house’s downspout is a great way to collect H2O to be used for your plants and lawn. When you need to water outside, you can simply connect your hose to the rain barrel.

I contacted WaterDR for a mitigation system for a high Radon reading after a home inspection. I spoke directly with one of the technician’s “Joe “ he was absolutely polite and informative.

Dennis and team were on time, eager to share their knowledge and full details of every aspect of the project and completed the work in a timely manner. Pricing was very fair, I will be using them for all my needs and recommending them as well.

Josh and the other technicians at Water Doctor are real experts and extremely knowledgeable. Even better, for the one obscure piece of equipment I had they had little experience with, they admitted they would have to check with someone else in the company before rending an opinion. These guys are honest, smart, ethical and have fair pricing. They won’t sell

The guys from Water Dr. couldn’t have been any better to deal with over the years. We sold our house and they did our least service/tune up. Years of great service on our well. Fairly priced. Just nice guys to do business with. If my new house had a well they would be my guys.
