(NAPSA)—Did you know that easy-to-fix household leaks could waste at least 10,000 gallons of water per year (and 10 percent of your water bill)? Join thousands of Americans all over the country this week in taking just 10 minutes to check for household water leaks.
According to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s WaterSense program, in the span of two television commercial breaks, you could save more than 10,000 gallons of water, which is equivalent to the water used to wash 10 months’ worth of laundry.
