 Record Dry Winter Calls on Pacifican's to Reduce Water Use
Voluntarily by 10%

Following the 4th driest winter on record, the NCCWD urges its customers to voluntarily conserve water by 10%. How? There are lots of ways! Begin by replacing any high flow water guzzling toilets with new low-flow toilets - also if shopping for a new washing machine think about purchasing a low flow machine - we can help- the District offers rebates on both these appliances. Simply review are "Rebate Programs" page for additional information and rebate application forms.

Top 10 Water Saving Tips

1. Turn off the faucet when you are brushing your teeth or doing the dishes.

2. Take shorter showers. (Especially the Teens in the home) Each minute you cut saves 2.5 gallons

3. Use a broom to clean sidewalks, driveways and pavement instead of using a hose.

4. Water only what your plants need: Water your lawn once a week and only at night.

5. This spring: plant drought tolerant plants.

6. Operate your clothes and dishwashers with full loads only, even if the machine has an adjustable
    load setting.

7. Stop leaks. To check for leaks turn off all water taps inside and outside your home. If the meter
    dial is moving, you may have a leak.

8. Install faucet aerators on your kitchen and bathroom faucets.

9. Replace your old toilet, the largest water user inside your home with a low-flow
    toilet.

10. Replace your clothes washer, the second largest user in your home with a front loader.
