Guidelines to save water include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Avoid filling swimming pools.<\/li><li>Avoid watering lawns and washing cars.<\/li><li>Use your automatic dishwasher only for full loads.<\/li><li>Use your automatic washing machine only for full loads.<\/li><li>If you wash your dishes by hand, do not leave the water running for rinsing.<\/li><li>Keep a bottle of drinking water in the refrigerator to keep it cool instead of running the<br>water.<\/li><li>Check faucets and pipes for leaks. Leaks waste water 24 hours a day, seven days a<br>week and often can be repaired with an inexpensive washer.<\/li><li>Check your toilets for leaks. To test for leaks, add a small amount of food coloring to the toilet tank. If, without flushing, the color begins to appear in the bowl, you have a<br>leak that should be repaired immediately.<\/li><li>Take shorter showers. Long showers can waste five to ten gallons every extra minute.<\/li><li>Install water-saving showerheads or flow restrictors. Area hardware or plumbing supply stores stock inexpensive water-saving showerheads or restrictors that are easy to<br>install.<br><\/li><li>We need your help. If voluntary conservation measures are unsuccessful, mandatory water conservation may be enforced. <\/li><li>Questions may be directed to the Genesee<br>County Department of Health.
