They use 30% less water than a normal faucet. In fact, they use a maximum of 1 \u00bd gallons of water per minute, making them an excellent, no-fuss addition to your green living plan. Not only do they function and perform just as well as a standard faucet, they are approved by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) too! <\/p>\n<h1><font color=\"burlywood\">&#10103;<\/font> <font color=\"#a06e2c\">High-Efficiency Shower Heads<\/font><\/h1>\n<p>It is said that the average family of 4 goes through approximately 40 gallons of water every day, but just in showers alone! That estimate does not include washing hands, rinsing dishes, watering the garden, flushing the toilet, running the dishwasher, or doing laundry! Fortunately, installing a high-efficiency shower head can help save a massive amount of water in your home. They can save up to 2,900 gallons annually, 13 days of energy, and $70 dollars per year.<\/p>\n<h1><font color=\"burlywood\">&#10104;<\/font> <font color=\"#a06e2c\">High-Efficiency Toilets<\/font><\/h1>\n<p>Speaking of flushing toilets, you can install a high-efficiency toilet to make a greater effort at green living. Plus it will help save money every year, too! Consider a dual-flush toilet, which gives users two options for flushing: low flush mode for liquid waste and a higher flush mode for solid waste. You can also install a low-flush toilet, which uses a mere 1.6 gallons per flush.<\/p>\n<h2><font color=\"#a06e2c\">Additional Energy-Efficient Options:<\/font><\/h2>\n<h3>&#8620; <font color=\"gray\">Water Heaters<\/font><br \/>\n&#8620; <font color=\"gray\">Water Softeners<\/font><br \/>\n&#8620; <font color=\"gray\">Dishwashers<\/font><br \/>\n&#8620; <font color=\"gray\">Washing Machines and Dryers<\/font> <\/h3>\n<h2><strong>Professional Indianapolis Plumbing Service<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><div id=\"attachment_1275\" style=\"width: 260px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.weilhammerplumbing.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/Weilhammer-Plumbing-Indianapolis-Indiana-Copy-e1533830127155.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1275\" src=\"https:\/\/www.weilhammerplumbing.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/Weilhammer-Plumbing-Indianapolis-Indiana-Copy-e1533830127155.png\" alt=\"Weilhammer Plumbing Company 317-784-1870\" width=\"250\" height=\"233\" class=\"size-full wp-image-1275\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-1275\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Weilhammer Plumbing Company 317-784-1870<\/p><\/div><strong>Call Weilhammer Plumbing Co.
