Today—as climate change, population growth, and record droughts present an unprecedented strain on our water supply—conservation technology is building awareness to the importance of having the most water efficient fixtures in a home or business. This course recognizes the flush toilet as one of the biggest users of water and discusses how toilet design is pushing flush technology to develop ways for homes and commercial buildings to conserve water without sacrificing the performance of the toilet. Industry testing protocols and the water-saving capabilities of different technologies are evaluated.

Upon completion of this course, the Learner should be able to:

  • Discuss why water use is fundamentally different than energy use and why water conservation is essential across the United States.
  • Explain industry protocols and procedures for testing the water efficiency and operational performance of toilet fixtures.
  • Explore the design options and functional possibilities of different categories of flush tank-type toilet.
  • Evaluate and compare the water efficiency of different flush technologies and discuss some of the regulatory challenges regarding toilet water use.
  • Specify appropriate flush tank-type toilets to meet the usage demands and sustainable design goals for a residential or commercial high performance building.

Approximately 1 hour. Delivered online, at your own pace.
