You'll see your water bill periodically. If you're in Vermont or New York, maybe not an issue; if you're in Texas, perhaps a different story.I took a short shower this morning. Sometimes I take longer. Use a low-flow shower head, especially one with an adjustable flow and you can take a guiltless 10 minute shower that uses less water than most people.5% less is better than more. :-)

Maybe I should sign up for a long-shower tax and pay more for a 10 minute shower! That would be a challenge for me, wow, under 5 minutes, I don’t know, but I’m sure my showers are quite a bit longer.

This is a great suggestion. This could be my way of helping save our planet from further destruction. I haven’t thought about using a timer. This is a great suggestion.

I have a low-flow head that can be turned down to a dribble via quick lever action. It works pretty well for conserving water and presumably energy.
