So if you're willing to make the investment, spending some money on new, high performance toilets that are stamped with this WATERSENSE sticker, can save you a lot of money on your water bill.

所以，如果你願意投資，花點錢買個新的高性能馬桶，蓋上這個WATERSENSE貼紙，就能為你節省不少水費。

Do you ever hear a toilet running when no one is using it? Like it just runs for a few seconds out of the blue? Any noise from a toilet that hasn't just been flushed means there's a leak.

你有沒有聽到過沒人用的時候馬桶在跑？就像它突然跑了幾秒鐘？ 如果馬桶沒有剛剛被沖走的時候發出任何聲音，就說明有漏水的情況。

Leaks are generally inside the tank, like around the valve that keeps the water from rushing from the tank down to the bowl. A good way to check for this kind of leak is to dump a bit of colored liquid, tea, fruit juice, coffee, into the tank. Give it a half hour. Then see if there's any of that liquid in the bowl. If there is, you have a leak.

漏水一般在水箱內部，比如防止水從水箱衝到碗裡的閥門周圍。 檢查這種漏水的好方法是往水箱裡倒一點有色液體，茶水、果汁、咖啡。給它半個小時的時間。 然後看看碗裡是否有這些液體。 如果有，就是漏水了。

Sometimes the cure is as simple as making an adjustment inside the tank, maybe a chain is tangled and the valve isn't able to close all the way.

有時候，治療的方法很簡單，就是在水箱內部做一個調整，可能是鏈條纏住了，閥門無法全部關閉。

Another easy way to save water is by replacing your shower head with a WATERSENSE labeled one that saves water. You can do it yourself by simply unscrewing the old shower head and screwing on the new one.

另一個簡單的節水方法是把你的淋浴頭換成有WATERSENSE標籤的節水淋浴頭。你可以自己動手，只需擰下舊的淋浴頭，擰上新的淋浴頭即可。

But if it the old one doesn't come off easily, call a professional. A $15 WATERSENSE shower head will reduce water use by a third or even a half, while providing a shower that feels as good or better than your old showerhead.

但如果它舊的不容易脫落，請找專業人員。 一個15美元的WATERSENSE淋浴頭可以減少三分之一甚至一半的用水量，同時提供的淋浴感覺和你的舊淋浴頭一樣好或者更好。

Do you know what an aerator is? They reduce the amount of water coming out of the faucet, but maintain or even improve the water pressure.

你知道什麼是充氣機嗎？ 它們可以減少水龍頭的出水量，但可以維持甚至提高水壓。

Check your kitchen and bath faucets with a finger to see if you can feel the mesh aerator in there. If you don't have one, buy one at the hardware store and screw it on. Just make sure the aerators, like everything else, are labeled WATERSENSE.

用手指檢查你的廚房和浴室的水龍頭，看看你是否能感覺到裡面的網狀充氣機。 如果你沒有，在五金店買一個，然後擰上。 只要確保充氣機和其他東西一樣，都標有WATERSENSE。

Now the water heater. You want to set it at the lowest temperature that still allows you to have the hot water you need. At JEA we think that sweet spot is right at 120-degree

現在是熱水器。 你要把它設置在最低的溫度，但仍能提供你需要的熱水。 在JEA，我們認為最佳溫度是120度

If you have an irrigation system, make sure your rain sensor is set-up and working properly so you're not watering when its raining.

如果你有一個灌溉系統，確保你的雨量傳感器的設置和工作正常，所以你不澆水時，它的雨。

Also, walk around your yard from time to time to check for puddles that could mean your system has an underground leak … and check your sprinkler heads to make sure they're not watering the street or sidewalk.then

此外，不時在院子裡走動，檢查是否有水坑，這可能意味著你的系統有地下洩漏......並檢查你的噴頭，以確保他們沒有澆灌街道或人行道.然後。
