4. Have warm showers

Start swapping your shower heads to help be water-wise. Opt for energy-efficient showerhead models that use little water, helping you save water. These energy-efficient shower heads will allow you to shower a little longer and build more steam to warm up your bathroom. When changing the shower head consider getting one providing a wonderful flow of water.

5. Check for basic efficiency in your bathroom

Check your bathroom windows to see if they are letting in any cold air. If your bathroom windows let in cold air, consider replacing the windows or using waterproof fillers like silicone to close the gaps. If you want to keep the temperatures high, getting heavy blinds will help insulate the room.
