Consider these tips to reduce your consumption:

• Reduce the amount of hot water used when washing clothes.
• Fill your automatic dishwasher before using whenever possible.
• Do not pre-rinse dishes before loading them in the dishwasher. Scrape off food and empty liquids. If you must rinse, use cold water.
• When the wash & rinse cycles are complete, open the dishwasher door and let the dishes dry naturally instead of heat drying them.
• Regularly check the condition of the filter screen. Clean or replace it when necessary.
• Do not leave the hot water running while doing dishes in the sink.
• Take showers instead of baths - you can save about half the amount of hot water used. Water-saving shower heads can save even more.
