Water conservation should be a daily, year-round habit to help in conserving our island’s most precious resource.

Here are some tips and ideas on how to conserve water all season long:

ADJUST YOUR SPRINKLER/IRRIGATION SYSTEM:
Adjust your sprinkler timer and remember to turn it off when it rains.

REDIRECT GUTTER SPOUTS TO LANDSCAPE AREAS:
Turn the down spout of your gutter towards your garden or landscape areas during rainy season.

INSTALL WATER EFFICIENT FAUCETS:
Replace your shower head and faucets with water saving devices. Install aerators and flow regulators to make your home conservation-friendly.

MONTHLY LEAK CHECKS:
A small leak in your home can account for over 10,000 gallons of water waste per month! Schedule a monthly inspection of your home’s faucets, toilets, showers and irrigation systems.

SEASONAL GARDENING:
In the fall, take advantage of the anticipated wet weather and plan to grow crops that will enjoy and thrive in the cooler climate.
