Water efficient home – video tutorials
Australia is the driest populated continent yet we are the greatest consumers of water per person in the world. On average each Australian uses about 100,000 litres of fresh water per year. When you factor in the water used to produce the food we eat and the products we use, we're each responsible for using about 1 million litres of water each year.
Below are some instructional videos to help you with some simple steps to making your home more water efficient.
