How Much Water Does the Average American Home Use?

WaterSense Program | Water Saving Features | Green Homes Raleigh NC

According to WaterSense, the average family of four can use 400 gallons of water every day.

- Approximately 70 percent of that water is used indoors.

- The bathroom is the largest consumer of indoor water.

- The toilet alone can use 27 percent of household water.

How can WaterSense Help Save Water (and Money)

- WaterSense labeled toilets require 75 to 80 percent less water.

- High-efficiency washing machines can conserve large amounts of water. New, energy- and water-conserving models use less than 27 gallons per load (compared to traditional models that use between 27 and 54 gallons a load).

Choosing WaterSense toilets for your new home is a wise decision.

Ask your builder if they provide WaterSense as a standard. If they don't, consider spending a little extra to save many thousands of gallons of water over the life of your home. After all, the toilet itself should never need replacing, even if a few of the tank parts need minor maintenance over the years.
