Tips for Consumers to Save Water and Money

Taking advantage of a few simple tips can help you save thousands of gallons of water, and hundreds of dollars, each year.

To conserve more water outdoors, try collecting rainwater. Using collected rainwater instead of tap water for your outdoor watering needs during peak summer months can save the typical household up to 1,300 gallons of water. Lawn and garden watering make up nearly 40 percent of total household water use during these hot months.
