Question

How can we reduce the amount of water we use everyday?

Answer 1

The average person in the UK uses 150 litres each day. Here's how to reduce that...

Turn off the tap when you brush your teeth – this can save 6 litres of water per minute.

Place a cistern displacement device in your toilet cistern to reduce the volume of water used in each flush. You can get one of these from your water provider.

Take a shorter shower. Showers can use anything between 6 and 45 litres per minute. Consider getting an aerated shower head, which combines water and air, or inserting a regulator in your shower, which puts an upper limit on flow rates.

Always use full loads in your washing machine and dishwasher – this cuts out unnecessary washes in between.

Fix a dripping tap. A dripping tap can waste 15 litres of water a day, or 5,500 litres of water a year.
