Showering is an important part of everyone's routine, but it uses a lot of water and energy - it is estimated that showering accounts for 17% of indoor water usage. There is an easy solution to showering better that saves water, energy, and money. That solution is switching out your showerheads to a WaterSense-labeled model. A WaterSense showerhead can reduce the environmental impact and the amount of water used.
There are many positive impacts of using the WaterSense shower head! If every home in the US started using WaterSense shower heads, we would save over 260 billion gallons of water and $5.4 billion in water and energy costs. By simply replacing one showerhead in your household, you could save 2,700 gallons of water and over $70 in electricity each year. If you are saving that much by only replacing one showerhead, imagine how much you could save by replacing them all!
