	<li><strong>Replace older toilets with a&nbsp;</strong><a href="http://www.conserveh2o.org/watersense" title="WaterSense Info"><strong>WaterSense</strong></a><strong>&nbsp;labeled high efficiency toilet.</strong>&nbsp;Older&nbsp;<a href="http://conserveh2o.org/toilet-water-use" title="info on toilets">toilets</a>&nbsp;can use up to&nbsp;4 times more water per flush.</li>
	<li><strong>Regularly check for &amp; repair water leaks.&nbsp;</strong>&nbsp;Even small&nbsp;<a href="http://www.conserveh2o.org/indoor-leak-detection-repair" title="info on leaks">leaks</a>&nbsp;can waste hundreds to thousands of gallons of water a month.&nbsp; Many water leaks can be fixed by a do-it-yourself plumber, and repair parts are relatively inexpensive to purchase ($5-20).</li>
	<li><strong>Take shorter showers.</strong>&nbsp;Each minute you shave off your&nbsp;<a href="http://www.conserveh2o.org/shower-water-use" title="info on showers">shower</a>&nbsp;time saves up to 2.5 gallons of water.</li>
	<li><strong>Install an aerator on your bathroom or kitchen faucet</strong>&nbsp;and save about 1 gallon per minute. An&nbsp;<a href="http://www.conserveh2o.org/faucet-water-use" title="info on faucets and aerators">aerator</a>&nbsp;reduces the flow from the faucet, and uses air to maintain good water pressure.</li>
	<li><strong>Select an&nbsp;</strong><a href="http://www.energystar.gov/" title="Info about Energy Star"><strong>Energy Star</strong></a><strong>-approved clothes washer next time you purchase a new&nbsp;</strong><a href="http://conserveh2o.org/washing-laundry-water-use" title="infor about clothes washer"><strong>washer</strong></a><strong>.</strong>&nbsp; They use 15-20 less gallons of water per load, and you will see savings on your energy costs too.</li>
	<li><strong>Install a high efficiency&nbsp;</strong><a href="http://www.conserveh2o.org/shower-water-use" title="info on showers"><strong>showerhead</strong></a>, and you could save an about 1 gallon of water per minute.&nbsp;</li>
	<li><strong>Know where your&nbsp;</strong><a href="/sites/default/files/resources/rwpc_resources/Shutoff_valve.pdf" title="master shut-off valve info "><strong>master water shut-off valve</strong></a><strong>&nbsp;is located.</strong>&nbsp;This could save water and prevent damage to your home.</li>
	<li><strong>Wash only full loads.</strong> <a href="http://www.conserveh2o.org/washing-dishes-dishwasher-water-use" title="info on dishwashers">Dishwashers</a> use about the same amount of energy and water regardless of the number of dishes inside, so run full loads whenever possible.</li>
	<li><strong>Turn the sink <a href="http://www.conserveh2o.org/faucet-water-use" title="info on faucets">faucet</a> on only to rinse </strong>or use a large container filled with rinse water when washing dishes by hand.&nbsp; You will save about 2.5 gallons of water for every minute your faucet does not run.</li>
	<li><strong>Scrape instead of pre-rinsing.</strong> Save yourself up to 20 gallons of water by scraping food off your dishes instead of pre-rinsing them. <a href="http://www.energystar.gov/" title="energy star website">Energy Star</a> qualified dishwashers and today&rsquo;s detergents are designed to do the cleaning so you don&rsquo;t have to. If your dirty dishes sit overnight, use your dishwasher&rsquo;s rinse feature. It uses a fraction of the water needed to hand rinse.</li>
