Maroubra Beach Clean It Up – Sunday 3rd Feb

Maroubra Beach Clean It Up 2019

One of the key objectives for the home summer sessions is connecting with local communities more, so we are excited to announce that home estate agents will be supporting our friends at Maroubra Community Facebook Page for a beach clean up day.

Our team, their families, friends and the extended home community are invited to get on the front line and make a difference to our local beach. Just a few hours of your time will go a long way.

A note from the organisers:

“Our swimmers, surfers and marine life are sick and tired of swimming in the ocean surrounded by rubbish. Bring a bucket, gloves, hat, sunscreen, water bottle, no plastic bags. Please wear a NAVY BLUE t-shirt.

Meet on the grass opposite Marini Café on Sunday Feb 3 at 8:15am sharp, so cross at the pedestrian crossing and meet us at the other side. At the end we will all meet for a coffee and come back and sit on the grass and talk about our next event. Any child under 18 must be supervised by an adult.

The organisers request if you are using Instagram, please use the hashtag #cleanitupmaroubra and tag @maroubracommunity when posting photos”

And please stop by the facebook page  and support the Maroubra Community.

Water Consumption

Still on the topic of water….. How much water are we using? It’s summer in Sydney’s Eastern Suburbs and it is simmering hot and all we can get enough water – normal no?

Weather you’re a home owner, leasing a property or even for the property developer implementing better routines and systems for water consumption to better manage our usage, is not that hard or need be a huge and ongoing expense. You can start with making a few small changes to your normal routine.

We offer tips in our rental handbooks on water consumption and believe that even if you make a start on one area at a time it will reduce your consumption more than you realise.

Kitchen

➡ did you know that 5-15% of households water use is in the kitchen?

➡ a dishwasher uses 2-50 litres of water per cycle

➡ washing dishes by hand uses about 18 litres of water

➡ a kitchen sink when completely full holds approximately 24 litres of water

Tips:

➡Do not let the water run while you wait for it to warm up or cool down. Place the plug in the sink first to collect all the water. You can also run this initial water into a container which can be poured onto the garden or into pot plants

➡ Try filling your sink by half, just enough to cover your dishes when washing them

➡ Save all your dishes until the evening and wash them in one go

➡ Start by washing the least dirty dishes first and then dirtiest last

Bathroom

➡ approximately 14-25% of a households water use is used in the bathroom

➡ washing your hands can use up to 5 litres of water

➡ the basin tap can use 15 litres a minute

Tips:

➡ Don’t leave tap running while you are brushing your teeth or having a shave. If shaving, fill the sink partially for rinsing your razor or face

➡ While waiting for the shower to warm up, place a bucket in the shower to catch the water and pour into garden later
