how low can you go?

Wanna watch both your bills and your water use go low? Try installing a low-flow showerhead.  In a typical household, showers account for up to 40% of hot water usage.   Federal legislation mandated improved showerhead efficiency for models made after 1994.  Older showerheads deliver four to five gallons of water per minute. A new, two-and-a-half-gallon-per-minute (2.5 gpm) showerhead will reduce your water consumption by 50%, cost only $10 to $20 and will quickly pay for itself in energy saved.  Your potential annual savings: $145 and 370 lbs of emissions.
