Our B&B network sponsored a forum on water conservation. The speaker was Robbin Pearce, a water conservation analyst and inspector for the city of Ashland, Oregon. She had many suggestions for water conservation for both homeowners and innkeepers. Among those are:
1. rainwater harvesting
2. regular audits by a water analyst
3. the use of aerators on faucets
4. low-flow toilets that feature both 1.2 and 1.6 gallon flushes
5. high-efficiency washing machines
6. on-demand hot water heating
These were the tips Ms. Pearce offered the innkeepers of Ashland. Have you tried any of these conservation solutions and did they work for you? What is your community doing to solve the water conservation problem? What can we as innkeepers do to conserve more water?
Please offer your suggestions below in the Comments form, or feel free to ask questions.
