According to the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.un.org\/waterforlifedecade\/scarcity.shtml\">UN data<\/a>, one-fifth of the world population is plagued by water shortages and it may\u00a0not be long before we all face the perils of low H2O supply.<\/p>\n<p>With that in mind, here are some\u00a0ideas on how to minimize water waste and cut utility bills for your rental property with the help\u00a0of water-efficient technology.<\/p>\n<h3>Dual-Flush Toilet Converters<\/h3>\n<p>Dual flush converters are very convenient water-saving devices which can be installed on\u00a0literally any toilet without the need for complete bowl and\/or tank replacement. Thanks to their\u00a0clever design and adjustable flush features, these converters\u00a0allow you to control the amount of\u00a0water tenants\u00a0use per flush<\/p>\n<p>They&#8217;re also available at an affordable price, so it will save you money on both short-term upgrade costs and long-term\u00a0utility costs. This is especially nice for landlords who take care of the water bill, but it can be a selling point if your tenant takes care of all utilities.<\/p>\n<h3>High-Efficiency Faucet Aerators<\/h3>\n<p>Aerators are faucet add-ons that can be easily screwed onto any indoor faucet head to prevent\u00a0splashing, reduce stream noise, increase water pressure and shape the flow released from the\u00a0spout, thus conserving H2O and energy needed for heating up water.<\/p>\n<p>High-efficiency aerators\u00a0are extremely cheap, so they\u2019re definitely one of the best water-saving investments for\u00a0your rental property if your appliances down&#8217;t already include them.<\/p>\n<h3>Low-Flow Shower Heads<\/h3>\n<p>Showers use\u00a0lots of water and the amount of H2O waste is\u00a0significant. For a quick switch to better water management, try a water-efficient shower head\u00a0with stream control features.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/lifeandstyle\/2014\/jun\/04\/green-apps-and-gadgets-eco-shower-heads\">Eco-friendly showers<\/a> let you enjoy all the wonders of a refreshing\u00a0hot shower with minimal water and energy waste. There are several different green shower head models\u00a0on the market, so you\u2019ll easily find the one that fits your budget and preferences.<\/p>\n<h3>Toilet Tank Bags<\/h3>\n<p>Toilet tank inserts are a quick fix for any rental home where water waste is an issue. Affordable\u00a0and <a href=\"http:\/\/greenlivingideas.com\/2014\/05\/15\/installing-toilet-tank-bag\/\">simple to install<\/a>, toilet tank bags reduce water consumption per flush without any other\u00a0changes in your toilet usage habits.<\/p>\n<p>Depending on your water tank capacity and individual\u00a0flushing needs, you can use inserts that are either filled to the brim (for maximum savings) or\u00a0you can fit them in the tank semi-full (for a more intense flush).<\/p>\n<h3>Water Flow Valves<\/h3>\n<p>Flow valves are designed to temporarily reduce or completely interrupt water flow during use,\u00a0so they\u2019re extremely practical for sinks in rentals without a diswasher (they can lower the faucet stream during the dish\u00a0soaping intervals) and showers (for a good body-soaping routine with minimal water waste).<\/p>\n<p>On\u00a0top of saving H2O, these smart devices will also cut your electricity bill as you won\u2019t need as\u00a0much energy to heat up water \u2013 hitting two bills with one tool.<\/p>\n<p>In a recent conversation with some <a href=\"http:\/\/www.forceplumbingandheating.com\/\">seasoned plumbers<\/a>, it was brought to my\u00a0attention that you can even try combining two or more water-efficient devices. For instance, a\u00a0toilet tank bag paired with a water-efficient shower head and a flow valve may cut utility bills for\u00a0your rental property by over 50%.<\/p>\n<p>Now, that\u2019s a figure that shouldn\u2019t be taken lightly \u2013 and\u00a0you\u2019ll still be getting all the water you need for your daily hygiene. Don\u2019t ask Mother Nature for\u00a0more than you need \u2013 if you want to help this world become a better place, try to be a wise\u00a0saver, not a careless taker.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We all know that going\u00a0green is in these days, and for good reasons, too: global warming,\u00a0climate changes, diminishing natural resources, carbon emission and growing pollution are some\u00a0of the aggravating world problems which environmentalists are trying to tackle through earth-friendly campaigns.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":1276,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[131],"tags":[58,106],"class_list":["post-1271","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-money","tag-apartment-life","tag-saving-money"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v25.2 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Water-Saving Devices for Your Rental &#183;
