Water
Is Your Water Usage Too High?
You may think those little leaks in your bathroom don’t amount to a drop-in-the bucket. Not so, the sneakiest drip can be found in your bathroom toilet. Toilet tank leaks, almost undetectable to the naked eye, can add $75.00 or more to your quarterly water/sewer bill.
Take a few minutes a day to save tomorrow!
- Check your toilet tank at least twice a year. (Toilet leak tablets available at the Borough office)
- Turn the water off. Don’t let it run when you wash, brush your teeth, shave or wash your car.
- Water your lawn in early morning—one inch a week is good for your grass.
- Take shorter showers or a bath.
- Run full loads of dishes and clothes.
- Water plants, not the sidewalk.
- Be smart, fix leaks.
