Save With Every Flush

Did you know that toilets are the biggest water wasters in the home? Whether you have a very old toilet or a more modern model you could save thousands of gallons of water and up to $100 a year with the new generation of efficient toilets without sacrificing performance.

When choosing new toilets, look for Premium toilets (1.1 gallons per flush) with the WaterSense label. These models have been independently tested for performance, efficiency, and quality and are available in local stores.

Local water utilities are partnering with local retailers to promote WaterSense toilets and demonstrate the water and money savings these toilets can generate. Participating retailers include Aurora Plumbing, Home Depot, Junction True Value, McLendon Hardware, Morgan Electric & Plumbing and Pacific Supply (a complete list is available at www.Savingwater.org). Drop by and check out the new generation of efficient toilets.
