Water saving tips
The average German citizen consumes 127 liters of drinking water per day
A few simple water-saving tips can save many liters.
The best tips for saving water:
- Take a short shower instead of bathing in the bathtub
- turn off the tap when washing in the shower and brushing your teeth (leaving the tap running for 3 minutes wastes about 30 liters of water)
- Flushers in the toilet can reduce water consumption by up to 18 liters per person per day
- Do not wash dishes under running water
- Install/attach water-saving devices such as flow restrictors and water-saving jets/showers
- Using water from a rain barrel for watering the garden
- Have dripping taps repaired
Simply incorporate our tips into your everyday life.
Saving drinking water not only reduces drinking water costs. On the one hand, you save energy costs (gas/electricity) for the heating system that heats the water, and on the other hand, you also pay waste water charges for every liter of drinking water.
