MAKE IT A ROYALFLUSH

 

40% of the Pure water you use in your house is flushed down the toilet.

 

BACKGROUND.

 

Your toilet probably uses more water than necessary. But with a onetime, tenminute investment, you can save water every time you flush.

 

TOILET TALK

 

Each time your toilet is flushed, it uses 5 to 7 gallons of water. But if you've got a toilet tank, you can easily cut that amount by 15% to 40%

 

The cheapest and simplest way: install a "displacement de­vice," which reduces the amount of water your tank will hold.

 

A displacement device can cut your annual water use by thou­

sands of gallon&and you'll never notice ies there.

 

Don't use a brick as a displacement device. Small pieces can

break off and damage your plumbing system.

 

SIMPLE THINGS TO DO

 

Put a Plastic Bottle In Your Toilet Tank

 

Small juice bottles, dishwashing soap bottles, or laundry soap

bottles work well.

 

Soak off the label, fill the bottle with water, put on the cap, and

place it in the tank. To weight it down, you can put a few stones in

the bottom of the bottle.

 

 

Be careful that the bottle doesn't interfere with the flushing

mechanism.

 

You may need to experiment with bottle sizes. Different toilets

need different amounts of water to maintain proper pressure for an

effective flush.

Savings: 1.2 gallons per Push.
