Saving Water in the Bathroom

Our Top Tips

Brushing Your Teeth 

• Don’t leave the tap running while brushing your teeth; only turn it on to rinse or use a glass of water to rinse 

Flushing the Toilet 

• Flushing the toilet accounts for 30% of the average household water use; fit a water saving device on a large or old cistern 

Take a Shower

• A bath uses three times more water than a shower; take a shower and save water, money and time
• Fit a low-flow shower head (non-electric only) to save even more water
• Beware of power-showers which use as much water as a bath
