3 ways to… save water

Our consumer lifestyle team are here to make your money go further

It’s more important than ever to conserve H2O – and these gadgets will help you do it!

1 Cut the excess

Reduce your water use with the Waterpebble (£9.99, boastyle.com), a gadget that monitors the length of your shower. Or just set a timer on your phone as a reminder – but don’t take it in with you! Alternatively, use the watersaving Mira Nectar Eco Single Spray Showerhead (£35, mirashowers.co.uk), but be aware that it’s recommended for mixer showers only, not electric ones.

2 Grab freebies

Get free water-saving devices, such as Save-aFlush bags (worth £2), to reduce the water needed per flush, and tap inserts (worth £5), to regulate flow. Visit savewatersavemoney.co.uk or ask your water company.

3 every little helps

Keeping plants thriving can be hard, but avoid overwatering with clever watersaving Aqua Globes (£5.99, creativeproducts.ltd.uk).
