WATER SAVINGS
Water represents a major part of household budgets.
Not wasting it makes for real savings, but do you know that 30% of water used in a house is heated.
Less pressure means less water used, and therefore less energy consumed.
Through its low load losses, the WATTS INDUSTRIES pressure reducing valves allow the obtaining of a normal flow rate when water in drawn is several places simultaneously.
The toilet flushing is less noisy and the taps no longer splash.
Example with a tap running for 10 minutes.

A considerable amount of the distributed water is directly dumped into the sewer without even having been truly used (see illustration above).
Reducing the pressure, all in obtaining comfort in use, allows for real savings.

In all cases, make a regular check of the condition of the tap and toilet flusher seals : a leak consumes a lot more water than you think ! (sometimes up to 3 m3 per day for a private household).
