Wild Fires and Drought in Denver, Colorado

Wild Fires and Drought in Denver, Colorado

Here in Denver, Colorado we have been experiencing severe wild fires along with drought and less than average rain. This fuels forest fires and makes it difficult for property owners around Colorado. Here at ServiceMaster Fire and Water Restoration, we want to ensure you and your family stay safe during statewide emergencies and want to provide some drought tips.  Below are just a few things you can do during times of drought this season. 

- Shorten showers! This will save hundreds of gallons of water a year depending on how many people are in the home.  This rule should be applied even when droughts are not an issue. 

- When purchasing appliances, make sure they are water efficient.  Toilets, washers and dishwashers are all available in energy efficiency. 

- Keep in mind that you should only be using these appliances when you absolutely need to. Fill the dishwasher and washer fully to save on water. 

- Turn the water off when brushing your teeth. 

- Wash produce within a bowl, running water is wasteful. 

- Make sure to follow your city watering regulations. These rules are enforced to ensure water is evenly distributed to all.
