At Bill Frusco Plumbing, Heating, & Cooling, we want to help you save money on your water bill. Here are some easy water-saving tips you can implement in your home today!

Bathrooms

Shorter Showers: Even a minute or two can add a lot of water to your bill. Try taking shorter showers and cutting down on baths to avoid wasting water. 

Low-Flow Showerheads: These innovative fixtures use less water while delivering a satisfying showering experience. The upfront cost is typically low, and the long-term savings on your water bill will add up quickly.

Turn Off the Tap: Turn off the faucet while brushing your teeth, shaving, or washing your face. Simply wet your brush or razor and fill a cup for rinsing.

Leak Detection: Even a tiny drip from a faucet can mean wasted dollars on your water bill. Address any leaks promptly to prevent wasted water and potential damage. Bill Frusco 

Plumbing, Heating, & Cooling can help with leak detection and repair, saving you money in the long run.

Laundry

Full Loads Only: Resist the urge to run small laundry loads. Modern washing machines are water-efficient with full loads, but can be wasteful with smaller ones. Wait for a full basket before hitting the “start” button.

Shorter Cycles: Opt for shorter wash cycles whenever possible. Many machines have an “eco” or “water saver” setting that uses less water for lightly soiled clothes. Consult your machine’s manual to find the most water-efficient settings.

Skip the Dryer: Whenever possible, ditch the dryer and hang clothes to air dry naturally. This not only saves water but also reduces your energy consumption, leading to even bigger savings on your utility bills.

Kitchen

Thaw Naturally: Don’t waste money letting frozen food thaw under running water. Plan ahead and thaw it in the refrigerator overnight or use the defrost setting on your microwave.

Full Dishwasher Loads: Just like the washing machine, wait for a full dishwasher load before running it. Most dishwashers have a water-saving setting for lighter loads as well. Consult your manual to find the most efficient option.

Fix Leaks Promptly, Don’t Leak Your Savings: A leaky kitchen faucet can be a major drain on your wallet. Don’t ignore dripping faucets – call us to fix them.
