5 Water Conservation Tips

Hampstead Area Water Company • May 3, 2018

Conserving water helps to avoid the considerable expense of developing new water supply sources, and ensures that we will continue to have adequate supplies to service our customers.

  1. Leaking toilets & faucets are the most common source of increased water usage.
    Hundreds of gallons of water can be lost from a toilet leak daily! (Refer to Leak Detection for additional information).

2. Do not over-water plants and lawns. For best results, try morning watering.

3. Avoid washing down paved areas. Also try using a bucket when washing the car.

4. Use the washing machine & dishwasher wisely. Half loads can use just as much water as full loads.

5. Avoid running the faucet while washing your hands, brushing your teeth, etc
