How do I run a water-efficient home?
|
|
You can run a water-efficient home by installing water-saving devices and adopting good water-saving habits.
The Water Efficient Homes Programme is community-driven. Residents in participating constituencies will receive water-saving kits, provided free of charge by PUB, through their grassroots organisations. The kits contain devices such as thimbles, installation procedures and water saving tips. The devices are easy to install on your own.
You can also obtain water-saving devices for your home by calling PUB at 67313275 or 67313273, Mondays to Fridays between 9 am and 5 pm.
You can also reach our PUB 24-hr Call Centre, PUB-One through:
the 24-hour toll free hotline at 1800-2846600
email at PUBone@singnet.com.sg
SMS at 90343430 starting with name, contact number, address and number of thimbles required.

How do we use NEWater?
|
|
A Singapore success story and the pillar of Singapore’s water sustainability, NEWater is high-grade reclaimed water produced from treated used water that is further purified using advanced membrane technologies and ultra-violet disinfection, making it ultra-clean and safe to drink.
In 2010, Singapore’s latest and largest NEWater plant was completed. This plant together with the expansion of the existing four NEWater plants can meet 30% of the nation’s water needs.
By 2060, we plan to triple the current NEWater capacity so that NEWater can meet 50% of our future water demand.
Because it is ultra clean, NEWater is ideal for industry use, such as wafer fabrication processes. NEWater is supplied to wafer fabrication, electronics and power generation industries for process use as well as commercial and institutional complexes for air-con cooling purposes. This frees up potable water for domestic use.
PUB also blends a small percentage of NEWater with reservoir water.
