To celebrate Earth Day 2011, Professor Toilet, American Standard’s online Flushologist, videotaped an interview with Brian Richter, Director of the Global Freshwater Program at the Nature Conservancy, a leading conservation organization. American Standard divided the interview into five clips and posted them for easy access. In the first two clips, Brian talks about the urgency of water conservation, and the challenges we face as the population increases while ground water levels decrease. In the next three clips, Brian and the Professor discuss national rates of water usage, and suggest how to save water without sacrificing performance or style.

All About High Efficiency Toilets (HETs)

Toilets are by far the main source of water use in the home, accounting for nearly 30 percent of an average home’s indoor water consumption. Older, inefficient toilets also happen to be a major source of wasted water in many homes. Replacing these toilets with WaterSense labeled toilets could save nearly 2 billion gallons per day across the country—that’s nearly 11 gallons per toilet in your home every day! By retrofitting your entire bathroom with WaterSense labeled fixtures from HD Supply Plumbing, you can save even more. What Are High-Efficiency Toilets? Under U.S. Federal law, new toilets must not use more than 1.6 gallons per flush (gpf). High-efficiency toilets (HETs) go beyond the standard and use 1.28 gpf, a 20% savings (6 liters v. 4.8 liters).  The WaterSense label can be applied … Read entire article »
