Decreasing block Uniform Increasing block
• Water resources and infrastructure are stressed across the country
• Non-drought water shortages are expected in 40 states in next 10 years
• Drought and climate change only increases uncertainty and problems
Why Save Water?
June 2014
May 2013
Not Just About Water
• Moving, treating, and heating water uses energy – Every gallon of water has an
energy “footprint” from treatment, delivery, and heating
• Energy used by the Water sector
– Nationally - ~3-4% for distribution – California - ~20% for all water
sector activities – Municipal energy use for water
can be > 40% – System level - energy is one of the
highest utility costs
WaterSense Label Assures Confidence
• WaterSense labeled products are third party certified for both efficiency and performance
• Promote water-efficient behavior and
action
• Help consumers save money
