If your plumbing fixtures were installed in the early 1990s or before, you probably have fixtures that guzzle water.

Replace old plumbing fixtures with WaterSense-labeled products. WaterSense fixtures undergo independent, third-party testing and certification to ensure they meet U.S. Environmental Protection Agency criteria for both efficiency and performance. Hundreds of WaterSense labeled bathroom sink faucets and accessories, showerheads, toilets, and urinals are available.

By replacing the following six devices with water-conserving models, the average family (2.64 persons) could easily save 109,528 gallons of water per year!
