Why conserve water?

Water is a precious resource that we need to use wisely.

  • It’s better for the environment - by using water efficiently rivers keep flowing, dams stay full, and groundwater supplies stay healthy for wildlife and plants.
  • It’s better for the Planet - capturing, treating and pumping less water to our homes uses less energy.
  • It’s better for the bank balance - reducing your water bills and by using less hot water, reduces your energy bills as well.
