Water Report (Did You Know?)

6 06 2009
  • More than 1/2 of all water use inside a house takes place in the bathroom.
  • Up to 75% of a home’s total water use during the growing season is for outdoor purposes.
  • Nearly 14% of the water a typical homeowner pays for is never even used. It leaks down the drain!
  • Running a full load of dishes in a dishwasher saves water over washing the same dishes by hand.
  • Fixing a toilet that silently leaks 200 gallons of water per day might save nearly $1,000 per year. (WOW)

Special Report for the Leaky Toilet
To detect leaks in toilet, add food coloring to the tank water. If the colored water appears in the bowl, the toilet is leaking. Now go get it fix.

VM: What does this have to do with design? Absolutely nothing! Just trying to save you some bucks people!! :D
