We can't stress this enough, but water is precious. Many of us waste it every day when we wash, do the dishes, etc. However, there are a few tips for saving water. Here they are!

1 – Turn off the water while you brush your teeth

And yes, it may sound funny, but many French people still leave the tap running while they brush their teeth. A faucet uses an average of 12 liters of water per minute. Not leaving it running while you brush your teeth (with a Caliquo toothbrush 😜) could save you up to 60 liters of water per day.

2 – Install an eco-aerator on your faucet

This small tool, which simply installs on your faucet, can allow you to reduce the flow rate of your faucet by up to 50%. These are simply screwed-on grids (metal or silicone) that mix the water jet with air while only reducing the pressure by 10 to 20%. This way, the wetting quality remains the same and your usual use is not hampered.

3 – Favor showers over baths

Taking a bath uses between 100 and 150 liters of water, while taking a shower only uses 20 to 60 liters. There's nothing stopping you from taking a bath on the weekend to reward yourself for the long week that just passed.

4 – Collect rainwater for watering

Your plants will be just as grateful for watering them with rainwater as they are with tap water. Your wallet will thank you too, as choosing rainwater over tap water for watering can save you up to €200 per year.
