Grohe’s Summertime Water Saving Tips

3 Easy Water Saving Tips for Summer

According to the EPA, the average home’s usage can spike to as much as 1,000 gallons each day in the summer, compared to just 260 gallons during the ‘off’ seasons. Here are three easy things you can do to improve water conservation this summer.

1. Bathrooms use more than 50 percent of all indoor water. Save water and protect the environment by choosing WaterSense labeled faucets.

2. Take showers! A full bathtub may hold up to 70 gallons of water; while a shower typically uses just 10 to 25 gallons.

3. If you wash dishes by hand, make sure to turn off the water when not in use. Letting your kitchen faucet run for five minutes while washing dishes can waste 10 gallons of water.
