Reduce The Flush

I have a real quick one for you today, it is a little tip I learned on our forums. All you have to do is grab an empty 2 liter bottle (coke, sprite, tonic, whatever it doesn’t mater) and remove the printed plastic sheath. Now just fill it up with water and put it in the water tank on the back of your toilet after the next flush. Just drop it in the corner out of the way of the inner mechanics and this will save about 2 liters of water every time you flush the toilet because the watter in the bottle displaces its weight in water lowering the amount of water it takes to fill up that water tank.
