ANTI-BACKFLOW VALVE

By law, the City of Mountain Park is required to install ant-backflow devices with all new meters installed. Each homeowner will be charged the cost of the device and its installation totaling $55. This amount will be included in your monthly utility bill and will be distributed over a 3 month billing period.

WAYS TO REDUCE YOUR WATER USAGE

1. Check for leaks inside and outside your house.
2. When washing dishes by hand, don’t let the water run while rinsing. Fill one sink with wash water and the other with rinse water.
3. Some refrigerators, air conditioners and ice-makers are cooled with wasted flows of water. Consider upgrading with air-cooled appliances for significant water savings.
4. Adjust sprinklers so only your lawn is watered and not the house, sidewalk or street.
5. Run your clothes washer and dishwasher only when they are full. You can save up to 1,000 gallons a month.
6. Choose shrubs and groundcovers instead of turf for hard to water areas such as steep slopes and isolated strips.
7. Install covers on pools and spas and check for leaks around your pumps.
8. Plant in the fall when conditions are cooler and rainfall is more plentiful.
9. Monitor your water bill for unusually high use. Your bill and water meter are tools that can help you discover leaks.
10. If your shower fills a one gallon bucket in less than 20 seconds, replace the showerhead with a water efficient model.
