    Answer:

Check every faucet in the house for leaks. A single dripping faucet can waste more water in a single day than one person needs for drinking in an entire week. Don't wait to fix a drip. Do it now!

Cut back dramatically on water waste and save on your home energy bill by insulating your water pipes. The most important pipe sections to insulate are the first few feet of water line entering the hot water heater and those leading from the water heater to fixtures and appliances. This will reduce the time it takes water to heat up and reach a constant temperature.

If a water pipe were to burst in your home, would you be able to locate the master shutoff valve? You could experience flooding and property damage, not to mention immense water waste, if you don't locate the valve and mark it for quick identification. Be sure to show everyone in the family where the valve is located.

Do not forget to save water usage in other places, such as bathroom, kitchen, laundry room, and outdoor, etc.
