Toilets

  • Toilets can account for almost 30 percent of indoor water use.
  • Replace older toilets with low-flow toilets which use only 1.6 gallons per flush. This will save on both water and wastewater charges.
  • Fill a half-gallon plastic jug with water and place it in the tank of an older toilet. This will reduce the amount of water used per flush.
  • Don't use the toilet as a trashcan or ashtray.
  • Check for leaks by placing a few drops of food coloring in the toilet tank. If the food coloring shows up in the bowl without flushing, you have a leak.
