Take 10-Minute Showers To Save Money

BALTIMORE (WJZ) -- A 10-minute shower can use less water than a full bath.

Mary Bubala reports with a low-flow shower head, a 10-minute shower will use about 25 gallons of water, saving you five gallons of water over a typical bath.

A new shower head will also save energy-- up to $145 each year on electricity-- beating out both the bath and an old-fashioned shower head.
