In recent years water has finally been recognized as being one of the most carelessly used commodities of our time… It is also recognized as one of the most precious and irreplaceable natural resources our earth has to offer.

In response, water conservation efforts, both voluntary and government mandated have taken aim at major water wasters. We at AFM Plumbers.coms can help you save water and money on your water and sewer bills.

Does your home or building have a water guzzling toilet? Most older properties have 5 gallon or 3.5 gallon per flush toilets. These toilet account for 40% or more of the water usage in most properties such as apartment building, hotels, motels, office buildings, condominiums, and single family dwellings alike. This 40% can and does account for a substantial and increasing cost of owning or operating such properties.

We at AFM Plumbers.com can assess your current plumbing situation to determine how much water and money your property can save each month. If you think your water bill is too high for the amount of water you and your family use, then it is probably true.

Consider changing your toilet to a dual flush toilet. This toilet uses a smaller flush for liquids and a larger flush for solids. Dual Flush technology combines exceptional water conservation and outstanding flushing performance. A two-button actuator allows you to choose either a 1.6- or .8-gallon flush option.
