Every month we’re all bombarded with that bill summary that shows us how much we owe DEWA, and most of the time it’s never that pretty (I mean, do you NEED to take that 45 minute shower every evening?)<\/p>\n

Since the majority of us share the same sort of pain (unless you’re one of those lucky people who bagged a great all inclusive rent deal), here are 11 tips that ought to make that bill slightly more okay-ish.<\/p>\n

1. Did you just say 4 gallons….<\/h3>\n
\n

Instead of keeping the tap running, fill a cup with water to rinse your mouth, to save 4 gallons of water. #DEWAbacktoschool<\/a> pic.twitter.com\/zLbhxJDayj<\/a><\/p>\n

2. Time for shopping perhaps?<\/h3>\n
\n

To prevent the unnecessary wastage of electricity, use timers or motion-detectors with lamps where applicable. #GreenSummer<\/a> pic.twitter.com\/tomeHmYVf0<\/a><\/p>\n

3. Unless of course you’re lazy<\/h3>\n

And you’re just about that manual-wash-and-go at the petrol station<\/p>\n

\n

When washing your car, use a bucket of soapy water & use a nozzle to stop the flow of water from the hose between rinsing. #GreenSummer<\/a> pic.twitter.com\/KQI80Vx1xf<\/a><\/p>\n

5. *sits in darkness*<\/h3>\n
\n

Turn off all unnecessary lights, appliances & electronic devices & unplug them to eliminate standby use. #GreenSummer<\/a> pic.twitter.com\/BXD7GyO3z9<\/a><\/p>\n

6. It’s also a good alternative for when you don’t feel like hitting the gym!<\/h3>\n

7. This one might hurt a little, but it’s all for the better.<\/h3>\n
\n

Use your AC only when and where it is needed. Turn AC units off in unoccupied rooms and when you are not at home. #GreenSummer<\/a> pic.twitter.com\/9nqJO6q8MT<\/a><\/p>\n

8. Unless you’re a panda – then 14C is acceptable.<\/h3>\n
\n

Set your AC to 24\u00b0C, which is the optimal temperature for the body. #GreenSummer<\/a> pic.twitter.com\/Jc1odl9xwC<\/a><\/p>\n

9. Just like Barney’s wise words, “I never let the water run”<\/h3>\n
\n

10. More garden-fanatic advice<\/h3>\n
\n

Conserve water by installing a smart irrigation system that regulates the water used for plants & irrigation. #GreenSummer<\/a> pic.twitter.com\/9cqlvDbfT4<\/a><\/p>\n

11. For those days when you try to wash just one pair of jeans….<\/h3>\n
\n

Save water & ensure efficient water use by making sure that you always wash a full load of clothes instead of half. #GreenSummer<\/a> pic.twitter.com\/Nf92tGq4AW<\/a><\/p>\n
