Drip Calculator
Check your faucets at home -- do any of them drip? Enough unchecked drips in enough houses can add up to a flood of wasted water—a disturbing fact in those parts of the country in drought conditions. Use our handy drip calculator to see how many gallons of water can go down the drain if your drippy faucets keep dripping.
