- A full bathtub requires about 70 gallons (265 liters) of water, while taking a five-minute shower under a low-flow showerhead uses 10 to 25 gallons (38 to 95 liters).
- The average bathroom faucet runs at the rate of about 2 gallons (7.5 liters) of water per minute. Try running water at less than full flow. Turn the water off while you floss and brush your teeth.
- Using less water means less energy is used to treat it, pump it, and distribute it. By conserving water, you are helping to maintain our natural resources.
