Pool & Pool Pump
In summer consider covering your pool to reduce evaporation and the same cover keeps the pool warmer in cooler months. Also connect your pool to rainwater tanks to fill them up when levels get low. Use the pool pump off peak to reduce energy bills. If you use a heater go for solar.

Mulch your garden to keep the moisture in. Water before 9am and after 5pm to maximise water penetration and try to hose on the garden not path-ways or drives.
