Do you take access to clean water for granted? Many of us do. However, access to safe and clean water is limited for many people throughout the world. World Plumbing Day is celebrated on March 11th every year to acknowledge the important role the plumbing industry plays in our health and safety. 

Here are a few ways that advancements in the plumbing industry have contributed to helping the environment and providing people with clean fresh water, heating, and sanitation:
  • Water Reuse - Rainwater harvesting, grey water systems and sewage water recycling are all great ways to increase the efficiency and usage of water.
  • Desalination - Most of the water on the planet is salt water. Although filtration has been expensive in the past, new energy efficient methods have increased the viability of desalination.
  • Energy Efficiency - Many water heaters and appliances now use less water and energy. These high efficiency and energy star rated appliances are much more environmentally friendly than those made even a few years earlier.
