Toward wiser water use
Posted: August 21st, 2008 | Author: mfguide | Filed under: Sustainability | No Comments »Green Source has a quick water saving article in the July 2008 issue.
It meets the “green multifamily article” standard of mentioning the Solaire at least once with a nice drawing of the water recycling program.
Good stuff, but it overlooks the mundane for the expensive. At my REO properties, our water conservation items follow this scope:
1. Annual inspections of toilet flappers
2. Diverter valve replacement
3. Low flow uniform pressure shower heads
4. Properly sized and cone shaped aerators
5. Annual inspection of water heaters
These are the techniques we use to reduce water usage on the cheap.
