Water

We use water everyday without thinking about it.

On average each person in the UK currently uses about 150 litres of water every day and much of this is wasted.

Over 25% of the average household heating bill is spent on heating water, costing around £200 per year. This could be even higher if you also use an electric immersion heater.

By saving water you'll be saving energy, reducing your home's carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions and helping to fight climate change.
