3. Showers and Baths are the second biggest water consumer. Change old shower heads to 2.5 gpm shower heads. Shower heads are free through our office.
4. Check faucets for leaks. Use faucet aerators that use 1.5 gpm.
5. Adjust sprinklers to water turf areas to prevent water to hit sidewalks or driveways.

7. Water restrictions are in affect from April through October. No watering between the hours of 10:00AM and 6:00PM.
8. Use shut off nozzles on hoses when washing vehicles. Nozzles are free through our office.
9. Eliminate over watering.  Measure moisture at the root level with a moisture sensor, which permits watering only when necessary.
10. Contractors should install approved toilets. A list of approved toilets is  available through our office. The list is also on line at http://www.cuwcc.org/MapTesting.lasso
11. Contractors should also avoid installing Home Water Treatment. From a water Conservation standpoint, water softeners waste surprising amounts of water.
