DesignThe design included increasing the loft insulation, exchanging light bulbs with LED bulbs, and reducing the water use via decreasing the flushing capacity of our toliet along with using a shower timer and low flow shower head.

ImplementI purchased 10 rolls of loft insulation (on sale for £10 for 3 rolls at the time) and up we went into the loft and increased the insulation from 10cm to 30cm deep.

I swapped out the G9 bulbs from teh light fixture in the living room with LED bulbs
I placed a water filled 2 litre milk carton into the flushing cistern, reducing the flushing capicty to 4 litres per flush (reducing each flush by a 1/3) also added Ecozone Magnoloo Anti-Limescale Toilet Descaler (reducing the need to clean the toilet) We stopped using washing deterget and softner and replaced them with Ecozone Magnoball Anti-Limescale Ball and Ecozone Ecoballs We also purchased some great soap, shampoo and hair soap from Lush to replace what we use in the shower. We also stopped having teh water running from the tap while performing abulatin before prayer and now use a water jug. As shown by Shaykh Khatri |
