Tips for saving water in water supply pipes

1. Ensure that there is no leakage in water supply pipes fitted in the house. To check water leaks, take reading of water meter before and after four hours when no water is not used. If there is change in meter reading, there is leakage in water supply pipes within the house.


2. Insulate water pipes to get hot water faster and to save water and energy.

3. Do not install water to air heat pump or air conditioning system. Air to air models are just enough efficient and do not waste water.

4. Find leakage listening to on and off sound of pump kicks while the water is not in use since there is every possibility of water leakage through pump.

5. Do not forget to check leakages in outside water supply pipes as we usually check indoor leakages in water supply pipes.

6. Replace all waste household faucets by installing flow restrictors faucets.

7. Clean driveway or street or side walk by using broom instead of using hosepipe to save 100 to 150 liters of water.

8. Install sprinklers used for most efficient use of water. Micro and drip irrigation and soaker hoses are most water efficient methods of irrigation.

9. Wash car and pets in lawn to water the lawn simultaneously.
