Each year household leaks
waste 1 trillion gallons
across the country. The U.S.
Environmental Protection
Agency's (EPA's) WaterSense*
program sponsors Fix a
Leak Week every March to
encourage homeowners to
find and fix leaks.
Visit www.epa.gov/
watersense/fixaleak for tips
on finding and fixing leaks.
EPA also developed teacher
materials to make learning
water basics and finding
and fixing leaks fun. Visit

Don't Let
This
Water Waster
Drain
Your Resources
Swirly
Swirly wastes water by
flushing the toilet too
much. Don't use your
toilet as a trashcan. If
you flush just one less
time a day, you could
help save more than
500 gallons a year!
Kids can play the Test Your
WaterSense game at
www.epa.gov/watersense/
kids/games.html and learn
about saving water at home.
