Water Saving Tips For Home

Saving water is easy! Changing the way you use water inside your home can make a big difference to Victoria's water saving efforts.

There are many simple ways to save water every day:

• turn the tap off while brushing your teeth or shaving
• keep bathwater to a minimum and divert to the garden if possible
• don’t wash your dishes under running water
• only wash with a full load of clothes
• make sure the dishwasher is full before turning it on
• divert your washing machine water to your garden
• repair leaking taps immediately.

A good place to start when saving water is to understand your daily water use.

Use the information on your bill or our online calculator to determine how much water you use and whereabouts in your home the water is used. This will help you to work out where you can make small changes to get the biggest savings!
