<li><strong>Vehicles</strong> - only use a bucket to spot clean mirrors, lights, glass and number plates</li>
<li><strong>Pools</strong> - From 1 July, only top up existing swimming pools from town water as a last resort and only where a rainwater tank or downpipe rainwater diverter is fitted and the premises complies with three of the following - a swimming pool cover, water efficient taps and showerheads, water efficient toilets, water efficient washing machine</li>
<li><strong>New or renovated pools</strong> - may only be filled with water sourced from areas not under Level 5 restrictions (ie brought in by truck)</li>
