The average leaky faucet drips once every 3 seconds. [I guess when youre a plumber you notice this sort of thing.] Obviously, a leaky faucet wastes water. However, not many people think about the amount of water that is actually being wasted over time, and how their money is (literally) going down the drain. Well, here is something to ponder. If your faucet drips once every 3 seconds, then every minute it drips 20 times. If you continue the math for the duration of an entire year, your leaky faucet will drip 10,512,000 times during that period, wasting over 694 gallons of water. Yup, thats right…..694 gallons of water wasted in just one year! Dont you think its time to fix that leaky faucet???
