• Take care of leaky faucets and pipes as soon as you notice them. A leaky faucet alone can waste up to 100 gallons of water every week.
  
• Older toilets use up to 5 gallons of water per flush.  New toilets are required to use no more than 1.6 gallons per flush, and some go as low as 1.3 gallons per flush.  And since toilets account for 26% of your annual water usage, converting to low-water consumption toilets will save literally tons of water every year.
  
• Older shower heads and faucets also consume more water than newer models.
  
• By giving your lawn a good soaking with each watering, you won’t need to water it as often.  
  
• High water pressure can force water where it is not intended to be.  If your water pressure is above 80 psi, we recommend installing a pressure regulating valve.  This will also help to reduce wear and tear on your entire plumbing system, including fixtures.   

Heating & Cooling 

• Make sure all ductwork, vents and registers are not blocked by furniture.
• Leave all interior doors open at least 2 inches if the room does not have its own return air intake vent.
• Insulate your attic and have your ductwork checked for proper sealing and cracks.
• Install solar screens, awnings, or plants to shade windows and walls during the summer months.
• Keep filters clean and inspect them monthly.
• Insulate your doors and windows…it’s estimated that unsealed windows and doors add up to a hole about the size of 12 to 20 bricks…can you imagine the loss of warm or cool air in a hole that size?
