What is Green Screened?

IF YOUR HOME IS MORE THAN 10 YEARS OLD, YOU COULD BE WASTING THOUSANDS MORE GALLONS OF WATER EVERY YEAR!

GO GREEN AND SAVE GREEN
The Green Screened Trademark is bestowed upon plumbing companies who embrace the challenge of protecting the environment. Only 1% of all contractors in North America qualify for Green Screened certification. Those given the honor provide the absolute best customer service, guarantees, and workmanship in the country. Green Screened plumbing companies also understand the importance of water conservation and water health and have made a commitment to educate homeowners on the benefits of having a. "green plumbing system."

All Green Screened plumbing companies have taken an oath to provide homeowners with FREE Home Conservation Evaluations. These evaluations include a:

Water Wasted Audit - An approximation of how many hundreds, if not thousands, of gallons of water your home wastes every single year.

Healthy Water Check - An analysis of what types of chemicals or impurities may be in the water you drink and use every day.

WATER SHORTAGES MAY HIT YOUR STATE WITHIN THE NEXT SEVERAL YEARS Utility Costs Will Climb and Water Unfit for Consumption May Be Distributed to the Public!

The population in North America has more than doubled in the last 50 years, yet the demand for water has tripled. The average person now uses—in one way or another—more than 100 gallons of water a day! As a result, levels of consumable water are far too low. Over the next several years, government studies have suggested that your state may experience a water shortage. 36 states are anticipating problems on a local, regional, and statewide basis!

This escalated demand for water is putting a heavy strain on distribution centers, too. Experts fear that these centers will not be alt to properly remove all of the natural contaminants and human pollutants before the water is dispensed to the public—to you! So, not only are water supplies diminished; the water that is "supposedly useable" may contain high percentages of toxins!

All this information points to one obvious fact: Water is more precious than ever! Everyone has a responsibility to start using it more efficiently. That begins by being more conscious of your water-consuming habits, modifying your home to make it more efficient, and regularly checking your water for impurities!

One of the BIGGEST REASONS FOR THE IMPENDING SHORTAGES:
Drippy Faucets, Running Toilets, and Inefficient Water Heaters!
Those Pesky Plumbing Problems that
Drive You ABSOLUTELY NUTS Are Wasting THOUSANDS of
Gallons of Water Each Year!

If Your Home is More than 10 Years Old, You Could Be Wasting Thousands MORE
Gallons of Water Every Year!
In 1994, the National Energy Policy Act was passed. It set standards
on all plumbing fixtures forcing them to become more water and energy efficient. So, if your home was constructed before ’94, it’s highly likely that its plumbing is drastically behind these new regimented standards… On average, it could be devouring TWO TIMES more water than is necessary!

SAVE WATER
Install new toilets: Toilets use 30% of every home's water supply making them the single highest indoor consumer. Toilets installed prior to 1994 use twice as much water, and toilets installed before 1980 use almost five times more! A new toilet can save at least 3,400 gallons of water per year.

Eliminate leaks and drippy faucets: A small leak of just one drip per second can cost you $1 per month. According to a recent study, 20-40% of all toilets leak! That doesn't include leaky pipes or faucets. The average home-owner could be losing hundreds of dollars each year.

Install aerators in old faucets: Faucets installed prior to 1994 use an excessive amount of water compared to today's models. An aerator can be installed in a faucet and cut waste by 25%.

Install new faucets: Rather than opting for an aerator, install a brand new faucet. New faucets can reduce water waste by as much as 50%.

Install new showerheads: Like faucets, showerheads installed before 1994 also use more water than is necessary. New high-efficiency showerheads can reduce water waste by as much as 60%!

FACT! ONE DRIPPING FAUCET CAN WASTE MORE THAN 180 GALLONS OF WATER A MONTH AND 2,160 GALLONS PER YEAR!

SAVE ENERGY
Install an InstaHot: As much as 25% of every dollar spent on energy goes towards heating water. Install an InstaHot at a faucet to reduce consumption by possibly more than 300 gallons per month.

Install new water heaters: They are the third largest energy users in every home! If a water heater is more than 10 years old, it is inefficient and wasting energy and money! Certain new water heaters today can provide as much as a 50% savings.

Install a Hot Water Recirculation System: You waste on average 15,000 gallons of water every year by turning on the faucet and waiting for it to get hot. Using enough electricity to light a 40-Watt light bulb, a Hot Water Recirculation System keeps the water in your lines moving in and out of your water heater, so it never gets cold.

SAVE ENVIRONMENT
Coat your plumbing lines with an epoxy: The epoxy improves the quality of the water in your home, and it can add 50 years to the pipe's life! That means the pipe won't be found in a landfill anytime soon.

Install a point-of-use or whole-house water filtration system: Both eliminate the increasing levels of pollutants found in tap water. Point-of-use systems are installed on one faucet; a whole-house system would treat your home's entire water supply.

Use biodegradable cleaners to keep your drains free of build-up: Instead of using harsh chemicals, biodegradable cleaners can eliminate blockages and open pipes. These cleaners are made from natural products and are perfectly safe for the environment.
