In the Bath
• Take showers instead of baths to reduce hot water use. A five-minute shower uses a third of the water it takes to run a bath.
• Don't let water run while brushing your teeth or cleaning the bathroom.
• Report all leaks or running toilets.
• Wash only full loads of clothes and use cold-water whenever possible. Let clothes air dry outside on hangers.
