A "Green" Bathroom

If you plan on remodeling your bathroom in the near future, keep the environment in mind. You may be wondering, what does the environment have to do with my bathroom? This is a valid question. Quite simply, your bathroom is a room in your house that uses a lot of water. There are eco-friendly products and practices you can incorporate into your newly remodeled bathroom.

A Toilet That Goes with the (Low) Flow
Did you know that toilets installed prior to 1980 use 5 gallons of water per flush? That's a lot of water! Luckily, today's toilets are built to be energy efficient and conserve water. A low flow toilet uses approximately 1 gallon of water per flush. Every drop counts!

Products That Are All-Naturale
When people think of recycling, plastic bottles and cans come to mind. However, you can re-purpose natural materials to build the bathroom of your dreams. 

Eco-Friendly Cleaners
Some cleaning products are filled with harsh chemicals that can take a toll on your plumbing fixtures. Influential brands have noticed the need to "go green" and have changed their products to match their philosophy. That's right; eco-friendly cleaning products are now available at a store near you.

These days, people are jumping on the "go green" movement--and for a good reason. Eco-friendly products benefit both the consumer and the environment. Talk about a win-win situation!
