Water. Such a precious resource.
You know how important it is to conserve and ration water during a dry summer. But did you know there are smart ways to conserve water on a daily basis?
Often Overlooked Savings: Toilet Water
Toilets can use quite a bit of water every single day, that’s assuming you don’t have a leaky toilet.
Old toilets use up to 3.5 gallons per flush while newer flush saver models use 1.28 gallons or less. If you have more than one bathroom in your home, updating your toilets could mean long-term cost savings on your water bill.
Do you find yourself jiggling the handle to make that pesky noise stop? You’ve got yourself a leaky toilet. A leaky toilet can waste over 200 gallons per day! That’s over 6,000 gallons per month! This means an average of an additional $70 on your water bill per month!
Fixing a leaky toilet is usually a quick and painless service request. We’re here for you for the simple fixes as well as the big ones.
We are happy to come out and fix your running toilet in no time and have you saving money on that water bill again! Consider upgrading your toilet for anew low flush model to save even more.
