Help save water and the environment

WaterCoolerFilters.co.uk knows how to bring you clean, purified water through the use of their state of the art, affordable water cooler filters, but we also know how to help you save water, which is an important peice of knowledge to have in this day and age where water conservation is so precious.

Did you know that less than 1% of the earth’s water supply can be used for drinking and two thirds of the water used in a home is used in the bathroom? This means we should look at how we use water in the bathroom especially and try to reduce it as best we can. For example, a small drip from a tap can waste as much as four litres of water a day, so check all your faucets and ensure they are firmly turned off.

Leaving the tap running while you clean your teeth can waste nine litres of water so ensure you turn the tap off when you brush your teeth and encourage your children to do the same. It’s also better to have a shower over a bath as a five minute shower uses about a third of the water of a bath, saving up to 400 litres per week.  You can also look into getting a water saving device in your toilet cistern as it can save up to three litres per flush.

In other areas of the house such as the laundry and the kitchen you can also help save water by waiting until you have a full load for your washing machine and waiting until you have a full load for your dishwasher, doing these two actions together can save up to 100 litres of water.
