Smart solutions to save water at home

In many areas, fresh water can be a scarce and precious resource. But with a fresh look at your household habits, you could save many litres of it every day. Ensuring that less water – and potentially money – goes down the drain for no good reason.​

Every drop counts

All our taps and showers reduce water flow, as well as the ÅBÄCKEN nozzle, making it easier to save water at home. In spray mode, misting nozzles use less water than a standard wash-basin mixer tap – in mist mode, they use even less.

Tips for saving water with cooling and heating

A modern shower head attached to a sleek, vertical bar mounted on a wall with neutral tones. A green leaf from an out-of-focus plant in the foreground adds a touch of nature to the scene. Below the shower head, on an integrated shelf, rests a natural loofah and green toiletries, suggesting a bathroom setting focused on relaxation and cleanliness. The background wall is subtly textured, complementing the simple yet elegant design of the shower fixture.

Take some pressure off

Kitchen taps, shower heads and hand showers fitted with a built-in aerator have a reduced water flow – without you noticing any difference in the water pressure. Saving you water without any extra hassle. ​

Stop the dripping

A dripping tap wastes water. By turning off the tap completely or replacing worn parts, you can prevent wasting water. It’s all about prolonging the life of the things you already have.​

Don’t let it run

The smallest steps or changes in behaviour can save money and resources. Many of us brush our teeth or shave while the tap is running. If you turn off the tap when you aren’t using it, you can save water.

 A white drying rack with various items of clothing hanging on it. There are two brown towels, one with polka dots and the other plain, and several shirts with different patterns, including a prominent blue plaid shirt. The drying rack is set against an interior background with a window, suggesting this is a common household scene related to laundry or garment care.

Air semi-clean clothes​

Hanging semi-clean garments to air on a rack or clothes rail, instead of washing them, may get you an extra day’s wear and mean one less wash. Saving not only water, but also wear and tear.​

Only run the dishwasher when it’s fully loaded​

A dishwasher can be a great way to get all those dirty dishes clean while you do something else. To make sure you use water and energy in the best way, remember to only run the dishwasher when fully loaded.​
