Housesholds save water

About 600 Peninsula households have taken advantage of Gosford Council's water and energy Refit Program, according to council figures.

Gosford Mayor Cr Malcolm Brooks said that residents had shown their commitment to the water supply issue by taking up the Refit offer.

"Many residents are already doing a number of water saving activities in and around their homes, which is great to see." Cr Brooks said.

The Refit kit includes a water saving showerhead, two tap aerators, a garden hose trigger nozzle and two compact fluorescent light globes.

Installation is free and includes an energy and water audit in each home to identify areas where further savings are possible.

The Refit kit is available for a subsidised price of $39, with the kit being valued at $120.

Residents can call 1800 815 727 to arrange for delivery and installation of the Refit kit as well as the home energy and water audit.
