Add Insulation to Your Water Heater
The water in your water heater will stay warmer longer if you insulate your water heater.   You will quickly recoup the ten dollars you will most likely need to spend for an insulation blanket.

Water Saving Showerheads
You can reduce the cost of your showers by almost half by installing water saving shower heads.  You will use less than three galloons of water a minutes with full force spray with some of the newer models.  These shower heads are inexpensive and easy to install.  Another benefit is that you will use less hot water. 

Shorter Showers
You can save lots of money on your energy bills by simply taking shorter showers.  You can save up to 25 gallons of water a month just by reducing your shower time by five minutes.   Turning your water flow on less than full force is another way to save money on your shower costs.

Don’t Keep the Water Running
You can save lots of money on your utility bills by turning off the water while you are shaving or brushing your teeth.  You use between two and four gallons of water just by leaving it on while you brush your teeth.  Turning the water on just while you are rinsing at the end will only use a couple of cups of water.
