Eco-Friendly Plumbing and Water Conservation Yes, you can even green your plumbing! The best way to do this is to use fixtures that reduce water consumption. A huge quantity of water is wasted on a daily basis in the average home. For example, a normal sink's faucet flow is 3 to 5 gallons of water per minute. There are other frequently ignored wastes as well, such as the fact that the average American uses over 100 rolls of toilet paper each year!
Reducing water consumption in the home can start with an aerator. According to Home Energy Magazine, more than 250 million gallons of water would be saved daily if every American installed faucet aerators.
