Visitors to Waterside Festival Will Save 4.5 Million Litres of Water

Visitors to Erewash Waterside Festival, which took place over the August Bank Holiday, will save more than 4.5 million litres of water in the coming year thanks to free water saving devices given out by Fantastic Home, a mobile energy and water efficiency exhibition.
 
Showersaves, Shower Timers and Save-a-Flush bags for toilets where given out to more than 100 people. As a result, they will be able to save one litre of water every time they flush the toilet as well as making significant savings on water use when they have a shower.
 
The Showersaves, which can be fitted to an existing shower, provide a lighter flow of water, and also save energy, as do the showertimers – an egg timer which can be fixed to the bathroom wall. Fantastic Home also gave away TV powerdowns and lightbulbs to help people save energy.
 
Over the lifetime’s use of the products those who received them will collectively save almost £75,000 and more than 130,000 Kg of carbon dioxide emissions.
