Water Conservation in the Kitchen and Bathroom

IRVING, Texas - Sept. 16, 2021 - PRLog -- Did you know that nearly 70% of the earth's surface is composed of water? Even more surprising, only 1% is safe for human consumption. The average single-family home typically uses 70 gallons of water per individual every day according to the EPA. The toilet can consume as much as 200 gallons of wastewater daily. This is why it's important to take steps to conserve water for our future generations. If change does not occur immediately, clean water is likely to run out.

Small changes in our day-to-day tasks can conserve water, energy, and money! It also provides the opportunity to raise awareness about environmental conservation!

Danco offers simple tips to conserve water in the kitchen and bathroom:

Replace older toilets with new ones:

Replace older toilets with eco-friendly high efficient models as they are low-flow and utilize less water. Do not flush anything into the toilet that is not human waste or toilet paper as it wastes water and clogs pipes. Installing a dual-flush toilet can also converse water due to the water level flush settings.

Install water-saving toilet fill valve

A water-saving toilet fill valve solves the two biggest reasons for water loss in toilets; miscalibration and leaks. Danco offers HydroClean Universal Fill valve that easily calibrates to adjust the exact amount of water needed in the tank, refills quickly and jets clean the tank.

Installing energy-efficient aerators

Faucet aerators are great for water and energy savings. One of the most inexpensive and easy ways to conserve water and energy is to replace old aerators with energy-efficient aerators. Aerators limit water flow through the faucet allowing water use reduced compared to the same flow without an aerator. Danco offers a wide range of energy-saving aerators that reduces water consumption without sacrificing water pressure.

Take care of your septic system:

Do not allow harmful items to enter the drain that could lead to clogs & harm the septic system. Do not discard any type of oil like cooking oil or grease and fat because it will clog your septic system. Even dairy products like milk, cream, and butter can clog your drain. When using a dishwasher, install the Danco Dual Thread aerator to regulate water flow.

These steps can reduce your water usage in the bathroom, help you save on your water and energy bills while saving water for future generations.
