The City of Poble Nou of Benitatxell encourages saving water by giving away flow reducers to all the neighbors who require it. This campaign was created under the motto “El agua se agota gota a gota, dale un descanso” (“Water runs out drop by drop. Give it a rest”.)
The town is handing flow restrictors at the Local Tourist Office with the only requirement being showing a water bill. Benitachell Town released a statement about the recent installation of water flow reducing boxes installed in several town spots, where water consumption were reported to reach a 50% saving on the water bill.
The water flow reducing devices are easy to install: They are coupled to domestic taps and reduce the flow without lowering the pressure.
These actions complement the awareness campaign launched this summer by the city with the slogan “Your drop matters”, disseminated through social networks and the Department of Communication.
The Mayor office invites all the residents and visitors to join efforts and participate in the campaign of water saving and contribute to responsible water use.
