3 Easy Ways to Conserve Water

Earth Month is underway! With warmer weather on the horizon, you’ll be tempted to spend more time outdoors - in the yard or the pool. Now is the perfect time to start thinking about how to keep things eco-friendly.

Did you know that nearly 9 billion gallons of water are devoted to outdoor water use? There are ways you can help! Below are 3 easy ways to conserve water:

Use a brush or broom. Sweep driveways, sidewalks, and steps instead of hosing them down. Keeping the outdoor hose running for long periods of time can cause unnecessary water waste.

Wash the car by hand. Lose the hose - you can save a lot of unnecessary water by using water from a bucket. Grab a sponge and you’re good to go. Alternatively you can go to a commercial car wash that recycles water.

Cover the pool. This will prevent water from evaporating when your pool is not in use.
