| - Install dual-flush toilets, waterless urinals and low-flow showerheads. Showers and restrooms typically make up about 40 percent of water use in hospitals.
- Check flow rates of sterilizers and make sure that more water is not running off than what the manufacturer suggests.
- Replace older sterilizers with models that recirculate water and have the option to be turned off when they are not being used.
- Check the X-ray processor to make sure more water is not being used than what is necessary.
- Turn off water when it is not being used. One of the most effective ways to save water is to be conscience of when it is used unnecessarily.
