Conservation
Products
There are many
common-sense steps we
can take to conserve water.
But here we’d like to
highlight some products
you may not be aware of
that make saving water
easier. A 20% reduction in
water use is a very
attainable goal!
Bathroom
How much water do you waste waiting
for your shower to heat up? You could
save a lot of
water by
installing a
hot water
recirculating
pump.
Shower Heads
Kitchen
Remember the old aerating nozzles that
were the water-saving shower heads back
in the day? Cold and nasty! Water saving
shower heads have come a long way.
Sink garbage disposers are a huge
water-waster. A lot of what you grind
down could be turned into great compost
for your garden.
Have a convenient
kitchen bucket and
the transfer it
periodically to your
garden pile or
composter.
Save up to 11,000
gallons per year!
*Connects easily to existing plumbing
*Easy to install
Install a water
saving aerator
on all your sinks.
Toilet
Convert your toilet
to dual flush. The
quick flush uses up
to 70% less water.
No tools needed,
works in toilets
with a flapper.
Save up to 15,000
gallons per year!
An inexpensive alternative is to install a
shower flow control valve that lets you
adjust the amount of water coming through
and allows you to easily pause the flow for
shampooing or soaping up.
Toilet leaks can be silent. Test your
toilets every year to see if you need to
replace the flapper. Drop a dye tablet
in the toilet tank and see if it seeps
into the bowl.
