Deciding whether asking your local plumbing contractor to install some of the modern high-efficiency toilets in your home is worth the investment or not requires some research on your part. Luckily, information on the subject is easy to find. If you don’t care to believe the manufacturers claims, you can investigate the guidelines provided by the government through the EPA site and the WaterSense product labeling program.

The EPA estimates that each of us will be responsible for about 140,000 toilet flushes in our lifetime. So replacing old-style toilets with high-efficiency toilets could mean saving 4,000 gallons per year. When you are ready to make this decision to upgrade your home to the new hi-efficiency fixtures, just make a call to your local plumbing contractor. They will be ready to help you plan a plumbing upgrade that will save you money on your water bill, while saving our valuable natural resources as well.
