Make waves, conserve water.
Delivering water to homes and businesses, and then treating it after it goes down the drain, comprises the single largest use of energy in Sonoma County. The Sonoma County Energy Independence Program can be used to help reduce your water use as well as your energy consumption.
When choosing energy efficiency improvements, think about replacing your toilets, upgrading
your irrigation controller, and reducing water
going down the drain with an on-demand
hot water system. Please refer to the
improvements listed to the right for specific
water conservation equipment allowed
under the program.
Interested in reducing your water bill while making a difference in conservation?
Now you can by upgrading water fixtures to use less, while saving more.
