Holiday Water Conservation Tips

Save Water This Holiday Season!

The holidays bring cooking, cleaning, and guests — but they don’t have to bring higher water use.

Here are a few easy tips to keep conservation in mind:

• Thaw foods in the refrigerator instead of running water

• Run full loads in your dishwasher and washing machine

• Scrape, don’t rinse dishes before loading the dishwasher

• Collect cold water while waiting for it to warm and use it for plants or pets

• Shorten showers — every minute saved helps!

• Check for leaks before guests arrive.

Every drop counts — thank you for helping protect our community’s water supply!

Happy Holidays from Your Local Water District!
