Conservation Tips:

• Do not over water plants and lawns. Avoid water runoff into streets and gutters.
• Install drip irrigation systems. It will benefit your plants, save water and reduce maintenance.
• Avoid washing down paved areas. Sweep or blow off driveways and sidewalks.
• Avoid toilet water waste. Do not use the toilet as a trash dispenser.
• Don't fall asleep in the shower. An extra 5 minutes in the shower could mean another 50 gallons down the drain. Use a moderate stream.
• Use the dishwasher wisely. Half loads cheat you out of full water use.
• Watch laundry loads too. Some 50 gallons of water are used to wash a load of clothes. Make every load count!
• Avoid the running faucet. Don't run water continuously while shaving, brushing teeth, peeling vegetables, or washing dishes.
• When leaving your mountain home unattended, always shut the water off at your customer valve, located by the green stake. Please remember that all water that passes through the meter is the homeowner's responsibility even water lost due to frozen/broken pipes.
• Use wood chips in your flower beds and gardens to help retain moisture. Call our office for more information. Wood chips are currently located by Well #3, at the entrance to Thousand Trails.
