Going Green for 2013

Go Green!

You’ve heard it over and over – but why does Going Green seem so expensive?  At Payless Plumbing, going green doesn't have to break the bank. There are some affordable alternatives that will help you save on your water and energy costs, while also helping the environment. 

Check Your Water Heater– When is the last time that your water heater had a sediment flush? Does it need replaced? There are also rebates available for energy saving models.  Our technicians can help you decide on a heater that will save you the most money, while still meeting your needs. 

Tankless Water Heaters – Tired of waiting for your water to heat up? Do you have a large family and are constantly running out of hot water?  How about a tankless water heater!  Tankless water heaters are a newer technology that changes the way we heat our water.  Instead of a large reservoir of hot water sitting in a tank all day and night maintaining temperate, a small water heater heats water as it passes through onto its destination.  No more more cold showers. 

A tankless water heater is slightly more expensive  than a traditional water heater, but your monthly savings will add up very quickly.  There are also many options and chances for government rebates. Our technicians will be able to help you find the best options for your home. 

Economy Use Showerheads & Faucets – Installing low-flow shower heads or sink aerators are two  great ways to save a lot of money and water.  There are many options available and our highly trained technicians can help you choose the one that is right for your needs. 

High EfficiencyToilets – Replacing your older and/or larger tank toile can save an enormous amount of money. Did you know that according to the American Water Works Association over 34,000 gallons of water every year is used from household toilets.  That's over 93 gallons a day – just from flushing your toilet!  Many of the new water saving toilets also have a dual flush feature, by which you can choose a half or full flush. All of these small changes can add up to big savings!

Fix Those Leaky Faucets – Did you know that one leaky faucet can waste over 20 gallons of water a day! What might seem like a small nuisance, could really be costing you money. Our plumbers can check for leaks in your pipes, toilets, or sinks and save you money in the long run. 

While these are only a few "Going Green" tips, call Payless Plumbing, Heating, and Drain Cleaning today to find out more ways to save on water and energy costs in your home or business.
