Save water and money with your toilet

May 15, 2008
  • Toilets are the single biggest water user in our homes and account for 34% of our water use.

  • 1 in 4 toilets leak so test and fix yours regularly.

  • To save water each flush, place a plastic bag full of water in your toilet tank.

  • To modify your toilet, install a two-flush handle to give a big-flush, little-flush option (Available at the EcoStore).

  • Upgrade to a new two-flush toilet and get a $50 rebate on your water bill.
