Less water, more wins - 5 benefits you’ll love

So, why should you care about cutting back on water use?

Water is a scarce and finite resource. Believe it or not, while 71% of our earth is covered in water, only 3% of it is fresh water.

Here are the top five benefits you can easily tap into:

1. Cut costs: Fixing leaks, upgrading irrigation, and improving efficiency will likely pay for themselves in just a few years. As water prices climb, your savings will too.

2. Help the environment and your image: Using less water means less strain on our most precious resource - water. We all need to play our part in saving water for future generations.

3. Lower energy bills: Every litre of hot water you save cuts your electricity bill. Heating water with an electric water heater costs around 2 cents per litre. So, even small changes, like swapping showerheads, really add up, saving up to a dollar per shower!

4. Boost your property value: Retrofitting your home or property with modern water efficient equipment will raise it's value on the rental and resale value. 

5. Check for leaks : Living Water Smart has lots of basic tips to share so you can spot leaks and become more water efficient.
