Water conservation and education programs
The average home wastes nearly 10,000 gallons of water per year from easy-to-fix household leaks – that’s equivalent to washing 300 loads of laundry! In just 10 minutes, you can check your house for easy-to-fix leaks from your toilet to showerheads to appliances and outdoor faucets.
During Fix a Leak Week, March 20-26, take the 10-minute Challenge to stop leaks at home. EPA WaterSense has some great resources to help assist you and check out the resources below to get started!
