Utility bills are an essential expense item for a modern person. Especially a lot of money is spent on paying water bills. Is it possible to reduce spending? You can, if you know simple ways of saving.
It is necessary
- - serviceable plumbing,
- - spray nozzle,
- - sink plug.
Instructions
Step 1
Close the tap tightly. The ocean is made up of drops and even insignificant, in your opinion, leaks can result in an extra 200 - 400 liters in utility calculations. It is also in your best interest to have any faulty taps repaired.
Step 2
Monitor the condition of the toilet cistern. A leaking tank, like a loosely closed tap, contributes to the loss of up to half a cubic meter of water per day. People on average spend about 5 cubic meters of water per month (!), So count yourself.
Step 3
Use sink plugs when washing dishes, brushing your teeth, or shaving. To wash dishes, fill a sink with water, soap up any dirty utensils, and rinse in the sink. Then fill the sink again and rinse the dishes completely. And in order to rinse your mouth, a glass of water is enough. These measures will allow you to reduce water consumption several times. A dishwasher will also help save on water consumption. But only use the washing machine and dishwasher when fully loaded. If you wash by hand, use a tub or basin to rinse your laundry.
Step 4
Try to prioritize showering over bathing. This reduces water consumption by 5-7 times. By choosing a shower diffuser with a smaller hole diameter, you also save water and money. And installing spray nozzles on taps will significantly reduce utility bills.
Step 5
Don't train your pet to drink running water. The water in the bowl has the same properties as the water running from the tap.
