Consejos simples para ahorrar

Water Smart Garden

Consejo #1: Haz el cambio a plantas que requieren menos agua
Casi todos los propietarios de viviendas en California usan la mitad de su agua regando su pasto. Los jardines que requieren menos agua no necesitan cortes ni mantenimiento frecuente.
Water from sprinklers on pavement.

Consejo #2: Riega solo donde se requiere

Reposiciona los rociadores para que no rieguen la acera. Usa un sistema de riego por goteo para regar las plantas adecuadamente.
Leaking sprinkler head.

Consejo #3: Repara las fugas de agua

Los hogares en Estados Unidos desperdician un promedio de 10,000 galones de agua al año a causa de las fugas. Identifica y repara las fugas dentro y fuera de tu hogar para cuidar el agua y bajar el costo de tu factura mensual.
