Test your WaterSense

If your water and energy bills have been too high for your liking, it might be time to test your WaterSense. The Enviromental Protection Agency sponsors a program called WaterSense which aims to cut back on the use of natural water resources. The program recommends and certifies fixtures that utilize less water than necessary and that help save energy. If you are especially unhappy with your water bills, you may want to look into a more efficient faucet or water saving toilet.

WaterSense Toilets

According the the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), toilet use accounts for 30% of all water used in the home. WaterSense, an EPA sponsored program, certifies toilets that can save 20% of household water use. To become certified, the toilets must go through meticulous laboratory testing and meet all WaterSense standards.

The EPA discusses the many ways to benefit from a WaterSense toilet, which include...

• saving 4,000 gallons of water per year
• using 20% less water per year
• reducing water utility bills
• rebates and vouchers for discounts on purchasing a WaterSense approved toilet

WaterSense toilets perform just as well, and many times, even better than regular toilets. There are also many options to chose from. Take a look at a few below.
