How can we conserve water
Answers
Fix leaky faucets, toilets, appliances and sprinklers. Leaks vary in amount, but they can account for a lot of wasted water over time.
Turn off the water when brushing your teeth. According to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), this simple act may save more than 200 gallons of water in a single month.
Use less water when doing laundry. Your washing machine can swallow gallons of water, so make sure you use it wisely. Wait until you have enough clothing for a full load of laundry before starting the washer. If you need to wash a small load separately, adjust the water level on your machine accordingly.
Take a shower instead of a bath, and take shorter showers. As reported by the EPA, if you shower for five minutes or less you will use about 10 to 15 gallons of water. Compare that number with baths, which use up to 70 gallons of water. If you do take a bath, try reusing some of the water in your garden.
Practice smart lawn watering. Water your lawn at optimal times of the day and make sure your sprinkler system is watering the lawn and not the sidewalk. Also, mow your lawn to a taller height, which will help keep moisture from evaporating as quickly.
Plant native plant species in your garden. Colorado species are hardier in their native soil and you will not need to water them as often as some other more exotic plant species.
Fill the dishwasher. Wait until you have a full dishwasher to run the machine. This will not only save water, but also electricity. If you just need one item, a quick hand wash will use less water than running the dishwasher with just a few items in it.
Purchase water-efficient faucets, laundry washers, toilets and dishwashers. If you have the means to purchase these yourself or are eligible for a program that will help you, purchasing water- and energy-efficient appliances can save you not only on your water bill, but also on your electricity bill.
