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.

Testimonials

Every time someone comes out and helps us with our maintenance they are always so professional, prompt, informative & helpful. We will never use another service to assist with our well system.

Water Dr replaced my well pump and drop piping this week, Their prices were competitive and our service tech Josh was friendly, professional and very knowledgeable. He noticed that our well cap was a driller's cap and not a sealed well cap required by code. He also noticed that there was no check valve anywhere along the 280 feet of drop pipe. Our previous well company replaced our well pump back in 2002 and never mentioned any of this. Josh also gave me other great tips on the type of filter to use for my water system and how many times to change it during the year to help prevent the rings in our toilet bowls caused by excess iron. Water Dr just gained a new customer for life Thank you Matt (owner) and Josh for doing such a great job!!!!!!!!!!!

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. We needed him to come the following day! I have to say they were on time and very professional. After fully explaining everything they immediately began to work. They were excellent, they finished the job in about 3 hours. They cleaned up their debris as if they were never there. I am happy to report that because of the system my Radon level was way below the minimum standards. I would very much recommend this company to anyone. Thanks again for the piece of mind.

After my water unexpectedly decided to stop working one night, I called The Water Doctor and I’m so glad I did. They were at my door the next morning (only because it was so late at night when I called) and got the water running temporarily even though my problems were so severe. They knew exactly what to do and they are so understanding that if you don’t have water you can’t live without it! If you have a water problem and want great service and the best price, these are the only guys to call for a fast and friendly solution.

Amazing service! I would highly recommend this company. Our water suddenly stopped working around 6 pm. We called Water Dr and Joey came out within 15 minutes. He was nice, professional, and very knowledgeable. He worked hard in the dark to make sure we got our pump fixed so that we could get water back ASAP. 5 Stars!

These guys are a pleasure to deal with and will not leave you “dry” …worked till after 9pm to ensure we we’re up and running..and the techs are well versed in their trade! A professional outfit!! They found we had a deep well, and went back to get their “new rig” (at 6pm) and had the pump pulled and changed, system pressure tested, and a new pressure tank fitted In basement and water running by 9:30. Now that’s service!!!!
- Alexander M.
Woke up to no water. Called Water Dr. at 7:35. Someone was at my house before 9 AM. Workers were friendly and efficient and clearly explained everything. Everything was completed by 10:30 and I was giving clear instructions on what should be done over the next 24 hours. I will definitely be calling them again for any future water needs/issues.
- Mike G.
Josh was awesome. Visited Saturday morning for a service, we needed a system change. Back out Monday, work was clean fast and he explained everything. Highly recommend.
- Malcolm C.
This company was amazing. We are selling our home and the inspection showed well contamination and radon in the basement. They came out on the appointment day and addressed both problems the same day even though it was later in the evening. They were very knowledgeable and explained everything in detail so we understood the process. I would highly recommend them.
- Pamela F.
They are very responsive. I had them install my filter system and now they come to clean. Friendly, honest and organized. THANK YOU
- John B.
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 you in stuff you don’t need, but are honest and will demonstrate why some things need to be replaced. I highly recommend them without reservation.
