In most homes, flushing the toilet is an automatic habit, but growing concerns about water conservation are prompting a rethink. Toilets use the same clean, treated water as household taps, and each flush sends several liters away—adding up to a large share of indoor water use over time. Some households reduce consumption by flushing less often for liquid waste, while others opt for dual-flush or high-efficiency toilets that cut water use without sacrificing hygiene. Small, conscious choices like these can make a meaningful difference.
