H2OME: A Guide to Permanent Water Savings

H2OME logoIncorporating water efficiency into a building at the design stage saves time, money and energy compared with retrofitting later.

The H2OME guide shows how water saving can be built into a home to deliver permanent water savings. It is aimed at people planning to build or buy a new home, renovating their home, or simply wishing to make changes to save water in their current home.

The guide focuses on the options and choices that arise when building, buying or extending a home. It helps home owners understand how these choices can either potentially lock you into using more water than you need, or allow you to permanently and easily reduce your water use.

It brings together information and advice about a wide range of water conservation and alternative supply measures in a simple and easy to read format, so you can develop the best package of measures for your circumstances.
