Garden Hose Tips
A garden hose can use more than 10 gallons of water per minute. To minimize water waste, try these tips:
- Put a spray nozzle with a cutoff handle on your hose so water doesn't flow continuously.
- Sweep your driveway and sidewalks with a broom. Don't spray them down with water.
- Check your hose connections for leaks.
- Use hose washers between spigots and water hoses to eliminate leaks.
- Rake and sweep leaves—don't hose them away.
- Use a commercial car wash that recycles water.
- Use a hose to water brown spots on your lawn.
