30% of the water used in the home is dedicated to the toilet alone. With only one flush, homeowners could be wasting five to seven gallons of water. They can conserve water by installing a dual flush converter. This little gadget allows homeowners to flush either a small or larger amount of water down the drain, entirely depending on liquids or solids they may need to wash down. 

Why Embrace Energy Efficient Water Heaters?

Water heaters, labeled as the second most significant energy usage source, can make a big dent in a homeowner's cost. However, energy-efficient water heaters that are Energy Star certified are a fantastic option if homeowners are looking to reduce their usage. Simply put, a tankless water heater only heats the water when it is actually being used and will last for more than 20 years. Therefore, saving energy and ultimately money on the monthly utility bill.
