Consider water-saving gifts this holiday
SURPRISE, AZ (December 18, 2007) Tis the season to shop and the city of Surprise, in partnership with the Water- Use It Wisely campaign, reminds shoppers that water-efficient devices and appliances make nice gifts.“The best part of all is that water-saving devices are gifts that keep on giving,” says Surprise Water Conservation Analyst London Lacy. “Not only are you helping to conserve precious water for the future, but you are also lowering the cost of your water bill.”And your energy bill can be lowered too. Front loading clothes washers are both water and energy efficient. The increased capacity means fewer loads of laundry. Less water is used, so there is less water to heat. And, the higher speed spin cycle removes more water, easing the dryer’s work load, as well. A family of four can save 1,000 gallons a month.Water efficient dishwashers can also save you both water and energy. If your dishwasher is more than a decade old, newer dishwashers are now using one-third to one-half less water. Save 1,200 gallons a year with a new water-efficient model.
Other water-saving and money saving devices include low-flow showerheads, high efficiency toilets and low water landscaping plant choices and water systems.
The city of Surprise is a proud member of the Water- Use It Wisely Campaign, comprised of various Arizona municipalities all dedicated to water conservation.
