Green Media: Shower better (Switch & Save)

Posted in Media, Sustainable GuideTagged , , , , , , , Leave a comment

As most of us would probably agree, a good shower helps us get ready to start the day or wind down after a long day. Sure, you could shorten your shower by one minute and save 550 gallons of water a year. But some are not ready to give up any of their shower time. The good news is that consumers can switch their older model showerheads to a new WaterSense labeled showerhead that is certified to save at least 20% or more water and provide a satisfying spray. This amounts to saving 2,900 gallons of water a year! And switching to a WaterSense labeled showerhead not only saves water but also saves energy and money on your utility bills. Join Flo and her cat, Puddles, in making the switch to savings with WaterSense.

EPA’s WaterSense program is dedicated to helping Americans be water-efficient in their homes, both indoors and outdoors.
