Driveway Dudes Paul shows you how to easily conserve water at home by using plastic water bottles in your toilet cistern.

He filled 5 bottles, each 50cl (1 US pint) with water, making sure there was no air bubbles inside and placed them in a 9L (19 US pints) capacity toilet cistern.

The water cistern refills to the 9L water line and when you flush, you only use 6.5L (13.7 US pints),  a saving of approximately 27% per flush.
