How To Save Water

These guides show practical and affordable ways to save water, how much you will save and what rebates and incentives are available. You can even save thousands of litres of drinking water simply by changing some habits and fittings, or checking for leaks – you don’t have to buy expensive appliances or put in large water tanks to make substantial savings. Remember, if you use less water in the shower or laundry by some simple changes, you are also saving energy costs!

On a low income?

Sydney Water offers a number of services to help customers with a low income:

  1. subsidised plumbing services
  2. free kits and services
  3. financial assistance
  4. rebates
  5. tap-turning devices
  6. a no-interest loan scheme to purchase water-efficient appliances.

You don’t need to be a Sydney Water customer

If you are not connected to drinking water or sewerage systems, you can still get certain rebates and offers from the NSW and Federal governments. See the Saving Water guides above.
