Water saving toilets

Most people only replace their toilets when they are broke, but if you are proactive you can save alot of water and money by installing a new water saving toilet.

Overall U.S. Water-Savings Estimate

If all U.S. households installed water-saving features, water use would decrease by 30%. This would save an estimated 5.4 billion gallons of water per day, resulting in daily dollar-volume savings of $11.3 million or more than $4 billion per year.

Water-efficient fixtures installed in U.S. households in 1998 alone saved 44 million gallons of water every day, resulting in total annual dollar-value savings of more than $33.6 million.

  • Average household water use annually: 127,400 gallons
  • Average daily household water use: 350 gallons

The largest daily user of water in the home is the toilet. By replacing this one product with a 

high-efficiency toilet(HET) you can greatly affect your total water usage.
