WaterSense has saved Trillions of Gallons of Water in 10 Years

The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's WaterSense program just celebrated its 10 year anniversary! WaterSense labelled products, which are independently certified to use at least 20 per cent less water and perform as well or better than standard models, have been on the market since 2007 when toilets first earned the label. Since then, the number of labelled models has grown to more than 16,000, including products found in residential and commercial bathrooms, commercial kitchens, and for outdoor irrigation. 
 
More than 1,700 utilities, local governments, manufacturers, retailers, distributors, builders and other organizations, including the Alliance for Water Efficiency, have partnered with WaterSense. This important program has saved Americans $32.6 billion in water and energy bills, and 1.5 trillion gallons of water. Despite its impact on water efficiency, WaterSense still needs to be authorized by Congress. AWE encourages everyone to reach out to their representative and urge him or her to support WaterSense authorization. Click here to learn more.
