With global droughts and unpredictable weather patterns, water conservation has become one of the biggest challenges today. Conserving water is essential for ensuring a bright future<\/em><\/strong>, and countries around the world are striving to get their systems under control<\/em><\/strong>. In America, many states have recently experienced harsh droughts which forced communities to quickly change their water consumption habits<\/em>. However, once the droughts had passed, many people continued to follow conservation practices without a second thought!<\/p>\n

Simple things<\/em><\/strong> like not letting the faucet run while you brush your teeth can save nearly two gallons <\/em>of water per minute<\/strong>. Plus, it can save you a tremendous amount on your next water bill<\/em><\/strong>! <\/em>Here are three ways you can immediately reduce water usage<\/em><\/strong> in your home or business today!<\/p>\n

1- Low-Flow Toilets<\/h2>\n

On average, more water is wasted in the bathroom than anywhere else in your home<\/em><\/strong>. While you can take shorter showers<\/em><\/strong> or turn off the faucet<\/em><\/strong>, the toilet<\/a> remains the biggest waste in the room. Luckily, you can switch to a newer <\/em><\/strong>low-flow toilet <\/em><\/strong><\/a>that saves the water for you!<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

Most models made before 1994 continue to use three to five gallons of water per flush. To be certified<\/strong> as a low-flow toilet, newer models must use no more than<\/em> 1.6 gallons for each flush<\/em><\/strong>. This means that you can save an average of 60% <\/em><\/strong>or more without changing your habits at all!<\/p>\n

At Beehive Plumbing<\/a>, our expert team in Utah can assess your current toilet and advise a new one that fits your needs. For saving water and significantly cutting down on your bill, a low-flow toilet continues to be one of the wisest investments today<\/em><\/strong>.<\/p>\n

2- Urinals<\/h2>\n

Urinals<\/a> are very helpful for businesses, and even homeowners, as they take up minimal space<\/em><\/strong>, reduce water usage<\/em><\/strong>, and ensure that customers can avoid long wait times<\/em><\/strong>. Unlike toilets, you can retrofit<\/em> your urinal with simple upgrades that will quickly and immensely reduce water usage<\/em>. While an average urinal uses one to three gallons per flush, newer models and upgrades can reduce water usage by nearly 50-90% per flush.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

Another option includes switching to a waterless urinal <\/em><\/strong>which uses gravity<\/em> instead of traditional flushing. With all of these options, you can drastically cut down on water usage<\/em><\/strong> while maximizing space<\/em> and efficiency<\/em>. Since the price of water isn\u2019t going down anytime soon, you\u2019re also looking at significant savings over the following years!<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

3- Tankless Water Heaters<\/h2>\n

Classic water heaters <\/a>come with a number of problems including long wait times for hot water, wastage, and the possibility that the tank may burst when you least expect it. With tankless water heaters<\/em><\/strong><\/a>, you can get hot water right when you want it at any moment<\/em><\/strong>. Since it doesn\u2019t waste time heating water when you don\u2019t need it<\/em><\/strong>, you\u2019ll never have to pay more for your hot baths again!<\/em> Best of all, there\u2019s no risk of spillage since the water is pulled and heated in real time<\/em><\/strong>.<\/p>\n
