Faucets: how to save water

The bathroom represents 59% of the water consumed at home (20% for toilets and 39% for bath and shower). The valves offer solutions to reduce water consumption.

Always use the mixer in the mixer . The single control, which regulates flow and temperature in one step, reduces consumption by 10 to 20% and up to 40% with thermostatics supplying water at preset temperature. The electronic faucets infrared detection to arrive in the house and are very effective in terms of water saving. The first prices cost about 130 euros. Alternatively, equip the taps with an economizer. The reduced water is compensated by air. The lightness of the flow is very pleasant. The flow restrictor is installed on the shower head at the base of the hose and reduces the flow in half with the same pressure.

The recycling of water is still undeveloped in the bathroom except in some shower cubicles or spa baths. In the face of the ecological imperative, research is active and should lead to innovative solutions.
