BET YOU DIDN'T KNOW...

 
  • The average five-minute shower takes between 15 to 25 gallons of water.
     
  • Each person uses about 100 gallons of water a day at home.
    Toilet flushing is the largest single use of water in the home.

          Percentages of water used:
          Toilet flushing                          40%
          Bath & Shower                         32

  • Water + wind = Waste!  If you water when it's windy, you will find the water going everywhere except where you want it to go!  Wind also causes water to evaporate quickly.
