Make a Splash
Spray Valve & Aerator Bulk-Buy Program – August 2012-September 2013
High-efficiency pre-rinse spray valves provide great pressure and quality performance with 60% less water and efficient faucet aerators save 75% water. When hot water is saved, energy is saved, too!
The Clean Energy Resource Teams, in partnership with Niagara Conservation, ran a bulk-buy program and got nearly 100 pre-rinse spray valves and 4,600 faucet aerators implemented in restaurants, businesses, schools, local governments, congregations, and more to save water, energy and money immediately.
