Advice from Owlie

Q: Dear Owlie, 

I have noticed a decrease in my water consumption on my water bill since putting your indoor water-saving tips to use.  Despite this decrease in water, I feel like I am missing some tips that I can use outside to save water.  What are some outdoor watering habits that will continue to lower my water use?  
Sincerely,

A: Dear Water Wise Homeowner, 

I am happy to hear you have been putting my indoor water-saving tips to use!  Some tips to use outside include checking your sprinklers to ensure they are watering your lawn and garden and not the sidewalk, changing your irrigation times every month to water early in the morning or later in the evening and not watering on windy days.  These tips can help you reach your low water use goals.  Learn more water-saving tips at www.ieua.org. 

Good luck with saving more water on your next water bill, 
Owlie
