Conserving water in the bathroom has never been more important as it relates to making your bathroom "greener". Water-saving faucets and showerheads, along with eco-friendly toilets, have come a long way in terms of both performance and design.
Low -flow toilets from companies such as Toto can save you up to 6 liters and in some cases more, depending on the exact make and model. Not only can it save you water, but in some cases it will also save you money! Be sure to check with local officials to see if any incentives or rebates are offered.
Faucets and showerheads represent another opportunity for water conversation. Products like Moen's Rothbury line of faucets carry the EPA's WaterSense certification. Any faucet with a flow rate of 1.5 gallons per minute or lower can be considered for this certification. The EPA website lists all WaterSense certified products on its' website.
Changes such as the ones mentioned can cut your water usage by 30% or more depending on how much you can do. Whether it's brushing your teeth or washing your face, don?t be the one left running the faucet!
