Water Saving in the Kitchen

Using the Washing Machine / Dish Washer

FACT: Washing machines use approximately 60 litres per cycle, dishwashers use approximately 40 litres of water per cycle

WATER SAVING TIPS:

  • Fully load or use the half load or economy setting
  • Buy an energy and water efficient model 
  • Don't rinse plates before putting them in the dishwasher

Using the Kitchen Sink

FACT: A dripping tap can waste up to 30 litres of water per day

WATER SAVING TIPS:

  • Use a washing up bowl rather than running the tap for rinsing and peeling vegetables. Place the dirty water on your garden plants.
  • Mend dripping taps
