Yallingup, Cowaramup, Peppermint Grove Beach and Margaret River households are invited to take part in the 2019-20 Waterwise Towns Program.
Up to two old shower heads can be replaced at no cost with water-efficient ones by taking the old shower heads and a copy of a recent Water Corporation bill to selected locations in each community.
Water saving offers are suited to local conditions with Peppermint Grove Beach, Yallingup and Cowaramup households invited to take advantage of free shower head swaps, comparative water use letters, an irrigation system check, plumbing retrofits and a rainwater tank rebate.
Margaret River households can participate in the free shower head swap and rainwater tank rebate programs.
Offers through the Waterwise Towns Program are available from October 1, 2019 to May 31, 2020 or until shower head stocks last, and rainwater tank program funds have been expended.
Capel households participated in the 2017-18 Waterwise Towns Program helping save 12 million litres of water - the equivalent of more than five Olympic sized swimming pools.
In 2018-19, the program saved more than 150 million litres of water.

Water Minister Dave Kelly said he encouraged households in these communities to take advantage of this initiative and help save precious water as climate change continued to be one of the biggest challenges we faced.
"Small changes can make a big difference. The simple act of swapping to a water-efficient shower head can help save you about 20,000 litres of water a year," he said.
"Communities participating in last year's Waterwise Towns Program together helped save an impressive 150 million litres of water or about 67 Olympic size swimming pools.
"I am confident with everyone's help we can achieve the same great results this year."
South West MLC Dr Sally Talbot said we saw the effects of our drying climate every day and most of us want to do whatever we could to mitigate the effects and prepare for the future.
"The Waterwise Towns Program provides everyone in these South West communities with the opportunity to help our environment," she said.
"Providing easy, practical and cost-effective solutions to reducing household water usage has already proven to be a successful approach and one I am sure we will all embrace."
