EPA announced in June that from the launch of its WaterSense program in 2006 through 2014, the agency and its partners have helped consumers save 1.1 trillion gallons of water and $21.7 billion in energy and water bills from using WaterSense-labeled products.
The agency said more than 1,600 water utilities, organizations, manufacturers, retailers, distributors, builders and irrigation professionals certified through WaterSense programs have joined with EPA to promote WaterSense-labeled products, programs and new homes. Nearly 15,000 different models of toilets, faucets, showerheads, flushing urinals, weather-based irrigation controllers and pre-rinse spray valves have been independently certified for performance and efficiency.
