Water Conservation
Q&A with Lena Medina, Featured Associate for The Home Depot #SustainabilitySquad
The toilet is a strange thing to be obsessed with, but we are proud of our fixation. That’s because toilets account for the greatest water use inside the typical home and why The Home Depot continually upgrades our assortment to use as little water as possible.
We were the first retailer to offer a toilet that uses less than one gallon of water per flush. And today, our entire in-store assortment meets the EPA’s WaterSense standard, or a standard even higher than WaterSense, which means our customers save approximately $100 a year in water expenses for every toilet they replace. We also make buying these toilets simpler by offering rebates where available and by conducting workshops in all of our stores, where we teach customers how to install toilets.
