Modern – Water Saving Toilets
Over the years as people update, upgrade their homes, they are becoming more cautious of saving energy and water. Modern toilets are finally catching up. It’s estimated that 30% of the water use in a household is from flushing the toilet.
You might have one in your home or have seen them at a friends or business – the tanks on today’s toilets are much smaller or are gone entirely.

American Standard Mainstream FloWise WaterSense™ High-Performance Round Complete Toilet
I can personally speak to this toilet. I replaced two of them in my home with this one and true to the advertising, after two years, these toilets have saved us money, saved water, and flushed everything a 3 years old can throw in it. As a bonus, the price was perfect.
This unit costs about $129.00 at LOWES!
