You know that annoying drip-drip-drip sound at 3 a.m.? That’s not a ghost. That’s your wallet crying. A single leaky faucet can waste 3,000 gallons a year. That’s enough water to fill a small swimming pool or make you cry when you see the water bill.
Surprising fact: a leak the size of a pinhead can waste 10 gallons a day. That’s like pouring a full bathtub down the drain every week, but slower and more infuriating. Go buy a $3 washer at the hardware store. You can do this. I believe in you.
And No, Duct Tape is Not a Permanent Fix
I tried it. It is not. Your landlord will not be impressed. Just fix it.
