Achieving cheaper water bills by saving water in your house doesn't require a major lifestyle change. The easiest solution is to focus on high-use areas in and around your home and installing the right hardware. By doing this you can master water conservation and save money on water bills without the hassle.
The bathroom is one of the main sources of water waste in UK households. A full bath can use up to 80 litres of water, and a five minute shower can use as much as 125l of water. Cutting water usage in the bathroom is one of the fastest and most efficient ways to see cheaper water bills.
Regulated Showerheads: Switching to a Flowpoint showerhead is a "set and forget" way to save money on your water bill. These showerheads use built-in Neoperl regulators to cap flow at 7 litres per minute, even at low pressure. - Shower Smart: Cutting just one minute off your daily routine is one of the most effective ways to preserve water.
Tap Discipline: Turning off the tap while brushing saves roughly 6 litres per minute. You could also install a water saving basin tap insert to reduce water flow without the need to change your existing tap.
Detect Toilet Leaks Early: Leaking toilets can waste up to 400 litres of water per day, and could cost households more than £200 per year if not fixed. Products such as LeakyLoo are Biodegradable adhesive strips that are specifically designed to identify leaks in toilets.
Kitchen habits are essential for long-term water efficiency and lower water costs. These are the most practical ways to save water in your house:
Aerated Taps: Screw-on tap aerators mix air into the flow. It's a "fit and forget" solution for cheaper water bills that doesn't sacrifice spray power.
Full Loads Only: Running dishwashers only when they are full is among the most practical ways to save water in your house. Did you know a dishwasher on average uses 13 litres of water!
Washing-Up Bowls: Use a bowl rather than a running tap to rinse veg or dishes. This small shift is a proven way to save money on your water bill.
Outdoor water use can spike during the summer, but the right water saving products can make it easy to maintain water efficiency outside the home.
Harvest Rainwater: Using a rainwater butt such as a Butt-In-A-Box to harvest rainwater is a great way to preserve water which can then be used on your plants or garden.
Precision Watering: Using a water-hose trigger gun is an easy solution to control the flow of mains water outdoors with multiple settings for full control of watering in the garden.
Water at the right time: Watering your garden in the early morning or late evening can help prevent water from evaporating in warmer temperatures, ensuring the water reaches the roots of your plants and lawn, as opposed to vanishing in the air.
Understanding how to save and conserve water is the first step; getting the right tools in place is the second. Whether you need a rainwater butt for the garden or a Flowpoint showerhead for the bathroom, we have the accredited solutions to help you save money on your water bill today.
