Basic Principles in Water Conservation
Reuse grey-water on site for flushing and irrigation.
Harvest rainwater for on site irrigation.
Reduce consumption – low-flow fixtures, toilet/lav combo units, two flush toilets, composting toilets, waterless urinals, automatic faucets.
Landscape with native plants that are use to local rainfall levels and don’t need additional irrigation.
Use efficient irrigation system.
