water use...
As residents of a desert climate,
we all have a responsibility to conserve our limited water
resources, especially during the hot summer months. We offer the
following valuable tips to reduce water use in your business:
-
use low-water landscaping.
-
maintain sprinkler systems and use them sparingly; consider
using drip irrigation.
-
use dry clean-up methods, such as sweeping.
-
make sure water isn't being wasted; fix leaking or misaligned
pipes.
irrigations systems and dripping faucets, and replace water
fixtures with low-flow devices.
