Can a dripping mixer tap really waste that much water?

Yes, it can. Even a slow, steady drip from a mixer tap can waste a significant volume of water over time. A tap dripping once per second can lose more than 30 litres of water per day, which adds up quickly on your water bills. In a city like Perth, where water efficiency matters, getting a dripping mixer tap fixed promptly is both a practical and responsible decision.
