Small changes at home add up. The average Tolmerra household uses 182 kilolitres of water a year, and many households can save a fifth of that with simple changes.
In the bathroom
- Take shorter showers and fit a water-efficient shower head.
- Fix a leaking toilet. It can waste thousands of litres a year.
- Turn off the tap while brushing teeth.
In the garden
- Mulch garden beds to keep moisture in the soil.
- Water in the early morning or evening.
- Choose native or low-water plants.
- Use a trigger nozzle on your hose.
