  • don't open the tap at 100%. I'm at about 2/3 and I don't see efficiency difference when I rinse myself, even with the inline flow reduction system.
  • don't let the water running too long to have your hot water, ie let water run when you gonna get your shower. If you change your mind then stop the water.
Same here, just get the job done using only the water I really need. The only exeptions are 2-3 times a year, when after a whole day of garden work, when I just need an extra 1-2 minutes under the hot water. Just a leeettle beeet longer, pleeez?

I found that out years ago (Now, when was my last shower? ) I know people who take a shower twice a day, or shower in the morning and bath before sleep. One of them once asked me why don't I do the same. I replied that I don't wrestle with sh*t at night.
