Fix a Leak Week
Did you know that an American home can waste, on average, more than 11,000 gallons of water every year due to running toilets, dripping faucets, and other household leaks? Nationwide, more than 1 trillion gallons of water leak from U.S. homes each year. That's why WaterSense reminds Americans to check their plumbing fixtures and irrigation systems each year in March during Fix a Leak Week.
Shower Better
Showering is an important part of the day, helping us wake up in the morning or unwind in the evening. Every time you take a shower, you also use energy to heat and deliver the water to your showerhead. But you can Shower Better by replacing your old showerhead with a WaterSense labeled model and save water, energy and money.

Never Waste
The WaterSense partner Alliance for Water Efficiency (AWE) and other water suppliers, communities and industry organizations across the country joined forces to launch Never Waste, a national campaign created to build awareness about the impact of water waste as water shortages become more common. The Never Waste campaign quantifies the amount of water wasted in our daily lives by comparing it to an everyday object—a water bottle—and encourages consumers to waste less and make a measurable impact. It also consists of simple water–saving tools and tips deployed through local outreach efforts nationwide. Get involved at www.NeverWaste.org Exit.
