A Simple Trick That Saved Me 10 Cubic Meters of Water Per Month 💧💡

Water is one of our most valuable resources, and conserving it isn’t just good for the planet—it’s also great for your wallet! When I discovered a simple trick that saved me 10 cubic meters of water per month, I couldn’t believe how easy it was—and I just had to share it with you.

If you’re looking to cut down on your water usage without making major lifestyle changes or expensive upgrades, this little hack could make a big difference in your household’s consumption. Curious? Let’s dive in!

đź’¦ The Trick That Made All the Difference

So, what’s the trick? It’s simple: I started using a water-saving device in my toilet. Specifically, a toilet tank bag (or water displacement bag). By installing one of these inexpensive devices in my toilet tank, I was able to reduce the amount of water used per flush without sacrificing performance.

đźš˝ How It Works

Most toilets use around 6 to 13 liters of water per flush, depending on the model. That’s a lot of water for each trip to the bathroom! By placing a water displacement bag (or even a plastic bottle filled with water) in the tank, the bag takes up space, which means less water is used per flush.

While this trick doesn’t affect the toilet’s performance, it lowers water consumption significantly over time.

📉 The Results

  • 10 cubic meters of water saved per month: That’s a huge reduction in water usage!
  • Cost savings: With lower water consumption, my monthly water bill dropped noticeably.
  • Eco-friendly: I’m contributing to water conservation without having to change my daily routine.

🧰 What You’ll Need

  • A water-saving bag (you can find them online or at most hardware stores), or
  • A plastic bottle (about 1–2 liters, depending on your toilet’s tank size)
  • String or a weight to keep the bottle in place

đźš˝ How to Set It Up:

Option 1: Water-Saving Bag

  1. Purchase a toilet tank water-saving bag. These bags are specifically designed to hold water and reduce the volume inside the tank.
  2. Open your toilet tank lid.
  3. Place the bag in the tank (typically on the side), ensuring it doesn’t interfere with the toilet’s flushing mechanism.
  4. Done! You’ve just reduced the amount of water used per flush.

Option 2: Plastic Bottle Method

  1. Take an empty plastic bottle (1-2 liters).
  2. Fill it with water (you can even add some sand or pebbles to prevent it from floating).
