SAVE WATER!!



Although petrol is costly and water comparitively cheaper(at most places) its more important to save water.Now i write a few tips to save some water.


Some are very common but few are new.Some common one's:


1. Don't leave the tap on while:a) brushingb) shavingc) bathing(preferably take a bucket bath over a shower)


2. Check all the taps and toilet flushes in your house to check if they are leaking and get them repaired if required.


3. Also check the water tanks and geysers for leakages and get them repaired.4. Leaking pipes can be repaired by simply using products like M-Seal Wet set and others. It costs only 5 rupees.


Now some new tips:


1. If you are washing your vehicle or getting it washed, get it cleaned/clean it using a damp cloth instead of using a lot of water everyday. It not only saves water but also saves your vehicle parts from rusting soon.


2. In places where water coolers are used do take care when they are being filled with water. Try to avoid water overflows.


3. Install a water level meter in the storage tanks of your house/housing society to avoid overflow.


4. In houses using RO water purifier systems almost two thirds of the water output is contaminated and hence not fit for use. This comes out through a separate output in all water purifier systems. Instead of throwing the water arrangement can be made to store the water and use it to clean the house, clean utensils. A direct connection can also be made to the toilet flush.


5. Report any water pipe/storage tank leaks in your neighbourhood to the local water board.
Lets all do our part to save this life sustaining substance. I'm sure we all will be benifited by it.
