Install 'AA' or 'AAA' rated shower heads. By replacing the old 'Universal' shower heads in your bathroom with the more efficient water saving shower roses, you can save up to 50% of the water (and money) consumed in your shower, without an adverse affect on shower quality.
Water-saving shower roses cost between $10 - $70 and are available from most plumbing supplies and hardware stores. Being such a low cost investment, they will pay for themselves in less than one year. Every year after that, you save money!
Try to limit your time in the shower to what is necessary to soap up, scrub down and rinse off. This will not only save you money in water supply costs, but also in water heating costs!
If you want a long soak, have a bath. |
