Plumbing

Investing in eco-friendly plumbing services is one of the best choices you can make for your home. Also called green plumbing, this investment is environmentally sound and economical. Many people typically think about what is cheaper in the short-term without considering the implications bad plumbing can have in the long run. Eco-friendly plumbing is incredibly energy efficient, creating a smaller footprint on the earth—but also on your wallet.

Comprehensive Lifestyle Solutions
Eco-friendly plumbing services extend from plumbing installment to using ecologically sound plumbing products. This method works by using systems like solar water heaters, gray water collection, and rainwater catchments that use less resources and energy to maintain. Plus, reliable, eco-friendly products can be used to clean your plumbing systems and fix problems like clogs rather than toxic chemicals.

Free Resources
This might be obvious, but oftentimes in this modern digital age we forget that resources such as sunlight and rainwater are free. Green plumbing thus takes the resourceful approach of harnessing the free energy provided by nature. Solar powered water heaters can be used to heat the water in your home, and most of them even come with backup systems for the cloudy days. Rainwater can be harnessed and used intentionally for exterior purposes, such as watering your garden. Grey water systems recycle the used water from the dishwasher, laundry and shower. By using ecologically friendly and nontoxic products, this can save exceptional amounts of water for further use.

Save Water
There are still more ways eco-friendly plumbing services can benefit the home of today. Water is the most precious resource on the planet, and copious amounts are wasted every day because of inefficient utilization. Toilets, for instance, account for 30 percent of all interior water waste, along with faucets and shower heads. Dual flush toilets are one way to better manage the amount of water you flush away. A home that installs water-efficient fixtures can potentially save about 30,000 gallons of water every year. From a do-it-yourself standpoint, check your systems and pipes regularly to catch any leaks as they happen, as persistent leaks can add up to hundreds of dollars without you ever knowing there is a problem.
