Products: Water Saving/Filtration

Caroma Toilets www.caromausa.com

Caroma is an Australian company whose strength and success has been built on the foundations of innovation, water conservation and quality. Caroma was the first company in the world to develop the 1.6 gallon dual flush toilet. This technology was released in 1993 and set a benchmark in water conservation in the sanitary ware industry and has made a significant impact on the reduction of water usage in commercial and domestic bathroom applications.

Caroma toilets offer a patented dual flush technology consisting of a 0.8 Gal flush for liquid waste and a 1.6 Gal flush for solids. Caroma toilets can save up to 72% (approximate. 18,000 gallons) of annual water usage compared to the traditional 3.5-gallon flush and up to 40% (approximate. 4600 gallons) compared to today’s standard 1.6-gallon single flush toilets.

Metlund - www.gothotwater.com

Metlund Hot Water D'Mand System is a high performance pump, integrated controller and electronic zone valve, requires no special plumbing. It is designed for use with any hot water heating system to provide energy and water savings. It's easy to install in new or existing homes or businesses. When you turn on your hot water this pump re-circulates your cold water back into your water line so you do not waste water (and money) as you wait.

Now you can have hot water in 15-30 seconds (depending on the size of the home and water system) without wasting a single drop and by using only a fraction of a penny's worth of electricity.

Aquasanawww.aquasana.com

Drinking Water Filtration System:

Aquasana's exclusive dual filter system uses a combination of carbon filtration, ion exchange and sub micron filtration to produce truly healthy, great-tasting water conveniently from your kitchen tap. Filters out chlorine, lead, prescription drugs, pharmaceuticals, VOCs, MTBE and cysts (chlorine-resistant parasites) and leaves in the natural trace minerals!

Shower Filtration System:

The Aquasana Shower Filter has a unique two-stage filter process for the healthiest shower possible. Stage 1 removes chlorine and enhances pH balance with a natural copper/zinc mineral media called KDF-55D. The second filtration stage uses a carbonized coconut shell medium for the removal of synthetic chemicals, THMs and VOCs that vaporize from tap water and are inhaled or absorbed through the skin, potentially causing adverse health and cosmetic effects.

Faucet Aerator’s

Heating water for homes is one of the most energy intensive processes that goes largely unnoticed. Equipping your sinks with faucet aerators can significantly reduce the amount of water you use. The aerators that we now carry are water saving, increase spray velocity and reduce splash. Less water used means less stress on septic systems or reduced costs associated with waste water treatment.

An added benefit to water saving aerators reducing water from your faucet means less water sitting in your sink, a plus for those with slow draining sinks that back up. Best of all, water efficient aerators are great for the environment!

Rainwater HOG
www.rainwaterhog.com

The Rainwater HOG is a fantastic rainwater catchment system that we are happy to offer. HOG tanks fit into spaces where other tanks do not, and its compact size allows it to be easily retrofitted for large volumes of rainwater storage in tight spaces. The HOGs can be installed vertically or horizontally, along side passages, below houses, and under decks. These water tanks are a modular solution to water storage, which means that you can store a minimum of 50 gallons up to thousands of gallons of water to fill your particular needs.

Not only was the HOG sized to fit between joists spaced at (24 inch) centers, but it was also sized for maximum thickness (9 ½ inches/220mm) keeping useful thermal mass characteristics. No other water tank is designed to be so versatile.

Rainwater can be used for watering your garden as well as for toilet flushing, laundry washing and bathing. Rainwater stored in food grade HOGs can be used as an emergency potable water supply. Rainwater is soft water, which means that it won't cause a build up of calcium in your plumbing like hard water can. You can drink rainwater as long as your roofing material does not contain toxic materials. You will need to add a first flush diverter to the fine screen filter in the Inlet kit. Don’t let your rainwater go to waste - the Rainwater HOG is a functional, efficient and visually discreet rainwater storage!

With this low-flow showerhead, you won’t feel like you’re saving water. Its integrated ShowerStart™ technology conserves water while your shower’s warming too.
