1. Remember to turn off the water

When you wash your hands, teeth or in the shower, you just have to turn off the water to save liters. For example, turning off the water when shaving can save up to 15 liters of water!

2. Repair the faucets and the toilet

A leaky tap is up to 100 liters of water wasted per day. A flush can go up to 1,000 litres!

In a home, the percentage of water lost due to leaks can amount to 20% of the bill... To think about.

3. Invest in an economical toilet flush

A classic flush consumes 10 litres, whereas if you opt for the economical flush, you go to 3 and 6 litres. And if we don't have the means, we do like me, we opt for the D system by installing a bottle of water in the flush tank.

4. Recycle water
