Bathrooms claim nearly 75% of indoor water use. Customers could save up to 240 gallons a month by installing sink aerators to reduce water flow. Install water-saving shower heads. Avoid outdoor watering on windy days. Water in the early morning for best results. Early-morning watering is also the best way to avoid peak-demand periods.
