Lowering household water consumption
I'm getting roommates in the house I recently purchased and include the utilities in the rent. I'd like to reduce water consumption as much as possible primarily for monetary reasons, but also for environmental.
I find that I enjoy my shower just as much with the water turned on only about 20% of full blast. Is there some device that can be installed inline with traditional shower heads that restricts water flow? I know there are low flow shower heads, but I bet I use even less water than those.
I'd also like to reduce flow from sinks, but I imagine that can be done by partially closing the supply line valves.
Any other tips for saving money as a homeowner?
